Tom White commented on HADOOP-6671:
-----------------------------------
+1
I've tried out all the aspects of building common using Maven and it works
well. I successfully managed to do a cross-project builds for HDFS (HDFS-2196)
and MapReduce (MAPREDUCE-2741). I created Jenkins jobs for building the tarball
(https://builds.apache.org/job/Hadoop-Common-trunk-maven/) and test-patch
(https://builds.apache.org/view/G-L/view/Hadoop/job/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build-maven/)
and am happy that these can be switched over when this code goes in. (Note
that they are not running at the moment since the Jenkins Hadoop machines are
down.)
I've added the Maven equivalents to
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute so it's easy for folks to see how
to do the common operations (they are in the BUILDING.txt file in this patch
too).

> We are now able to publish hadoop artifacts to the maven repo successfully [
> Hadoop-6382]
> Drawbacks with the current approach:
> * Use ivy for dependency management with ivy.xml
> * Use maven-ant-task for artifact publishing to the maven repository
> * pom files are not generated dynamically
> To address this I propose we use maven to build hadoop-common, which would
> help us to manage dependencies, publish artifacts and have one single xml
> file(POM) for dependency management and artifact publishing.
> I would like to have a branch created to work on mavenizing hadoop common.
