--------------------------------------
Summary: Update Scala Install instructions
Key: MXNET-1225
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MXNET-1225
Project: Apache MXNet
Issue Type: Story
Components: Apache MXNet Scala API
Reporter: Denis Davydenko
Current Scala Install instructions for building it from Source (not for Maven
download) are not very easy to follow, they require navigating to multiple
pages and figuring out how to build and stitch multiple pieces together to make
it work. Also there are multiple paths users could end up following in order to
build Scala from source. One of them could lead users to the trap that we
experienced while building Scala from source for performance testing. The trap,
in more details, pertains to instructions to build MXNet from source where
there is no copying params into config.mk file. As a result – MXNet could be
built with OpenBLAS but consequent Scala package build won’t have config.mk
file to use and thus won’t have same set of params that were used during MXNet
build (namely – it could miss USE_BLAS=OPENBLAS flag and thus build Scala
package without it, exactly the trap we experienced). Please update Build from
Source instructions to ensure this trap path is avoided.
