Summary: dist assemblies access jars outside of flink-dist (was: dist
assemblies access files outside of flink-dist)
> dist assemblies access jars outside of flink-dist
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-9582
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9582
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build System
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.6.0
> Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
> Assignee: Chesnay Schepler
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> The flink-dist assemblies access compiled jars outside of flink-dist, for
> example like this:
> {code:java}
> <source>../flink-libraries/flink-cep/target/flink-cep_${scala.binary.version}-${project.version}.jar</source>{code}
> As usual, accessing files outside of the module that you're building is a
> terrible idea.
> It's brittle as it relies on paths that aren't guaranteed to be stable, and
> requires these modules to be built beforehand. There's also an inherent
> potential for dependency conflicts when building flink-dist on it's own, as
> maven may download certain snapshot artifacts, but the assemblies ignore
> these and bundle jars present in Flink.
> We can use the maven-dependency plugin to copy required dependencies into the
> {{target}} directory of flink-dist, and point the assemblies to these jars.
