> Migrate dependency handling from maven-ant-tasks to resolver-ant-tasks
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-16391
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16391
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Build, Dependencies
> Reporter: Michael Semb Wever
> Priority: High
> Labels: lhf
> Fix For: 4.0-rc

>
> Cassandra resolves dependencies and generates maven pom files through the use
> of [maven-ant-tasks|http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks/]. This is no longer a
> supported project.
> The recommended upgrade is to
> [resolver-ant-tasks|http://maven.apache.org/resolver-ant-tasks/]. It follows
> similar APIs so shouldn't be too impactful a change.
> The existing maven-ant-tasks has caused [some headaches
> already|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16359] with internal
> super poms referencing insecure http:// central maven repository URLs that
> are no longer supported.
> We should also take the opportunity to
> - define the "test" scope (classpath) for those dependencies only used for
> tests (currently we are packaging test dependencies into the release binary
> artefact),
> - remove the jar files stored in the git repo under the "lib/" folder.
> These two above points have to happen in tandem, as the jar files under
> {{lib/}} are those that get bundled into the {{build/dist/lib/}} and hence
> the binary artefact. That is, all jar files under {{lib/}} are the project's
> "compile" scope, and all other dependencies defined in build.xml are either
> "provided" or "test" scope. These different scopes for dependencies are
> currently configured in different maven-ant-tasks poms. See
> https://github.com/apache/cassandra/commit/d43b9ce5092f8879a1a66afebab74d86e9e127fb#r45659668
