Tom White commented on HADOOP-6629: ----------------------------------- bq. I had not time to replicate Avro's approach to generate Eclipse files, but IMHO it's better. See HADOOP-6407, which follows Avro's way of doing it. > versions of dependencies should be specified in a single place > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6629 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6629 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: build > Reporter: Doug Cutting > Assignee: Doug Cutting > Attachments: HADOOP-6629.patch, HADOOP-6629.patch, HADOOP-6629.patch > > > Currently the Maven POM file is generated from a template file that includes > the versions of all the libraries we depend on.
