-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Drop experimental developer property: 
general.maven.project.basedir
                 Key: ACCUMULO-4507
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4507
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: core, scripts, start
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 2.0.0


The experimental property {{general.maven.project.basedir}} was created as a 
way of conveniently bootstrapping configuration pointing to a user's 
development environment, so that the target/classes directories could be easily 
injected onto the classpath for testing.

This really isn't necessary, since a developer can simply edit their classpath 
manually. It should be stripped out to move towards simplicity in an area which 
is already unnecessarily complex (scripts/classloaders).

(This would also imply removing the corresponding hidden -b, --basedir option 
from the bootstrap configuration script.)
