Swarnim Kulkarni created HIVE-3449: -------------------------------------- Summary: Speed up ant builds with the ant uptodate task Key: HIVE-3449 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3449 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Build Infrastructure Affects Versions: 0.9.0 Reporter: Swarnim Kulkarni
Given that the hive build is an enormously loooong build (~ 6hrs), it might be very helpful if there are some checkpointing capabilities available to be able to resume a build from failed point and not have to restart everything on a single test failure. One possible way to do this would be to use the ant uptodate task to check set of target files to be more up-to-date than given set of source files and execute a target only if that is true. By default this capability could be off but can be activated with the -Dresume=true argument. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
