Ashish Thusoo commented on HIVE-144:
------------------------------------

hmm...

the reason that these files are copied there is to support pre processing as 
that is needed due to differences in the hadoop APIs. Consequently, the files 
in ql/src/java are preprocessed and then copied to build/gen-java where 
everything is built.

Agreed though, that if this breaks eclipse then we need to figure out a way to 
make pre-processing work with eclipse. What are the standard practices to deal 
with pre processing in eclipse?

> Since HIVE-98, the build process copies the contents of the ql/src/java 
> directory to build/gen-java where the code generated from Hive.g is located. 
> This makes it a bit more difficult to work on the project in Eclipse, since 
> one has to add the build/gen-java folder to the project and not ql/src/java. 
> This means we'll edit the ql java files in the wrong location. Adding both of 
> these directories will of course result in duplicate entries.
