Thomas Dudziak commented on ZOOKEEPER-537: ------------------------------------------ @Patrick: I can make a stab at the build.xml later this week. @Hiram: Well, I'm no expert in GWT, but doesn't it have to be this way so that GWT compiles the java source code on the fly in a web application (quite similar to JSP pages) ? But this then means that you're not depending on the GWT build as a library, and you thus won't get any dependency conflicts because you happen to have another conflicting version on the classpath. And this is exactly the problem with zookeeper: Maven sees source files in the jar and compiles them, so I'll get zookeeper classes in my jar which then can conflict with some other version of zookeeper that I might have on the classpath. > The zookeeper jar includes the java source files > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-537 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-537 > Project: Zookeeper > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.2.1 > Reporter: Thomas Dudziak > Fix For: 3.3.0 > > > This is a problem if you use zookeeper as a dependency in maven because for > whatever reason the maven compiler plugin will pick up the java files in the > jar and compile them to the output directory. From there they will land in > the generated jar file for whatever project happens to depend on zookeeper > thus introducing duplicate classes (once in zookeeper.jar, once in the > project's artifact). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
