Scott Carey commented on AVRO-812:
----------------------------------
avro-ipc uses avro-maven-plugin, so it should work from there.
make sure that the maven-plugin is installed in your local repo and then run
avro:help from the ipc module:
{noformat}
$ cd lang/java/maven-plugin
$ mvn install -DskipTests
$ cd ../ipc
$ mvn avro:help
{noformat}
produces this output:
{noformat}
