-----------------------------------
Summary: Introduce Maven/Gradle/etc. based build for Sqoop to make
it more developer friendly / open
Key: SQOOP-3052
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-3052
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Attila Szabo
Fix For: 1.4.7
The current trunk version can only be build with Ant/Ivy combination, which has
some painful limitations (resolve is slow / needs to be tweaked to use only
caches, the current profile / variable based settings are not working in IDEs
out of the box, the current solution does not download the related sources,
etc.)
It would be nice to provide a solution, which would give the possibility for
the developers to choose between the nowadays well used build infrsturctures
(e.g. Maven, Gradle, etc.). For this solution it would be also essential to
keep the different build files (if there is more then one) synchronized easily,
and the configuration wouldn't diverege by time. Test execution has to be
solved also, and should cover all the available test cases.
In this scenario:
If we can provide one good working solution is much better, then provide three
different ones which become out of sync easily.
