Emmanuel Bourg commented on SOLR-3204: -------------------------------------- Hi all and thank you for your quick reply. This is not a "simple" Maven metadata issue. Even if you consider solr-commons-csv to be an internal part of Solr it's now a public Maven artifact that people are starting to use in their projects (The Apache Commons teams even starts receiving bug reports for solr-commons-csv). When Commons CSV is officially released there will be a conflict if solr-commons-csv and commons-csv are both brought to the classpath through the transitive dependencies of a project, because they have the same classes in the same package. Imagine a project using Solr and doing CSV stuff with Commons CSV, when the CSVParser classes is instantiated it can be either the one from solr-commons-csv or the one from Commons CSV, this is guaranteed to break badly. The right approach is to change the package of solr-commons-csv, for example to org.apache.solr.commons.csv, so both solr-commons-csv and Commons CSV can coexist on the classpath without conflict. This can be automated with the Maven Shade plugin. > solr-commons-csv must not use the org.apache.commons.csv package > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-3204 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3204 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.5 > Reporter: Emmanuel Bourg > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 3.6 > > > The solr-commons-csv artifact reused the code from the Apache Commons CSV > project but the package wasn't changed to something else than > org.apache.commons.csv in the process.
