Hi Heron Folks, I wanted to run something by the dev list, for the initial scala port of the streamlets API I am targeting building scala interfaces using the java to scala tool and having the interfaces invoke the java implementations, now the way the packaging is setup all the java implementations currently live inside /Users/saikat.kanjilal/code/heron/heron/api/src/java/com/twitter/heron/streamlet/impl, in Intellij I have made the scala directory an additional source directory and am planning on adding the bazel rules file to create a scala library.
Now my question is this, should we move the java implementation package to a central location so that the implementations can easily be accessed by both the java and scala interfaces, I really don't want to have 2 copies of the implementation files, and it seems awkward to leave the java implementations living where they currently do. Here's a possible idea I was thinking about: top level directory: /api/src/java/com/twitter/heron/streamlet java interface directory: /api/src/java/com/twitter/heron/streamlet/java scala interface directory: /api/src/java/com/twitter/heron/streamlet/scala implementation directory: /api/src/java/com/twitter/heron/streamlet/impl With the above strategy I can tell Intellij to make the streamlet subdirectory be the src, not sure this actually matters when building a bazel related project. Would love to have some input on this. Thanks in advance.
