                 Key: HADOOP-7277
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7277
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 0.20.204.0
            Reporter: Jeffrey Naisbitt
            Assignee: Jeffrey Naisbitt
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.20.205.0


This is to add the eclipse launchers from HADOOP-5911 to the 0.20 security 
branch.

Eclipse has a notion of "run configuration", which encapsulates what's needed 
to run or debug an application. I use this quite a bit to start various Hadoop 
daemons in debug mode, with breakpoints set, to inspect state and what not.

This is simply configuration, so no tests are provided. After running "ant 
eclipse" and refreshing your project, you should see entries in the Run 
Configurations and Debug Configurations for launching the various hadoop 
daemons from within eclipse. There's a template for testing a specific test, 
and also templates to run all the tests, the job tracker, and a task tracker. 
It's likely that some parameters need to be further tweaked to have the same 
behavior as "ant test", but for most tests, this works.

This also requires a small change to build.xml for the eclipse classpath.
