Mark Pollack commented on HADOOP-7944:
--------------------------------------

In the footnotes, add a line to give context, e.g.  If you try to import a 
pom.xml (existing maven project) into eclipse you may encounter some problems.  
<existing text>

I don't think 'ant' is required anymore in the 0.23 build is it?  If so it 
could be removed as a required packaged to install.  Seems like there needs to 
be a separation between pre 0.23 and >= 0.23 documentation for getting started. 
 Ping me when the larger wiki effort kicks off.  I might update the IntelliJ 
docs as well in the meantime.

> The wiki page http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/EclipseEnvironment has some out 
> of date information, for example 
> mvn test -DskipTests
> mvn eclipse:eclipse -DdownloadSources=true -DdownloadJavadocs=true
> cd ../; cd mapreduce; ant compile eclipse
> should be
> mvn install -DskipTests
> mvn eclipse:eclipse -DdownloadSources=true -DdownloadJavadocs=true
> 'install' is needed instead of test in order to get the build artifacts in 
> the local M2 repo for reference in the eclipse build path.  Also there isn't 
> a 'mapreduce' directory anymore and the mvn eclipse:eclipse command craetes 
> the necessary .project files under the 0.23 'hadoop-mapreduce-project' 
> directory.
> I'd also like to add a blurb about using eclipse with m2e/m2eclipse.  For a 
> maven based project many devs would just import the root pom.xmls.  With the 
> new release of the m2e plug-in, this doesn't work anymore as pretty much all 
> targets are not supported by the new 'connector framework' - yes, it is a 
> giant mess.  This means falling back to m2eclipse or just doing the eclipse 
> generation as mention.
> Adding a pointer to http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute such that 
> the requirements to install java, maven, and protoc compilers would be 
> helpful.  The information on getting started from scratch seems a bit 
> scattered and I'd like to help clean that up.
> Please let me know how I can help to contribute in this area.
