Patrick Wendell created FLUME-2379:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Flume's pom files are invalid and not parseable by
non-maven build tools
Key: FLUME-2379
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2379
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build
Affects Versions: v1.4.0
Reporter: Patrick Wendell
The pom file in flume 1.4 relies on properties that are not defined outside of
profiles. This is technically an invalid pom format and, while it happens to be
supported by maven, is not supported by other build tools that consume poms.
In general, AFIAK, it's not good for projects to rely on profiles for
downstream consumers of build, since technically maven profiles are not
considered during transitive dependency resolution.
To fix this, default values just need to be set for properties such as
`thrift.version` that are defined inside of the profiles.
I reproduced this easily with the following build.sbt file:
{code}
name := "Simple Project"
version := "1.0"
libraryDependencies += "org.apache.flume" % "flume-ng-sdk" % "1.4.0"
{code}
Then you can just run `sbt compile` and it fails.
