Abe Ratnofsky updated CASSANDRA-17750: -------------------------------------- Labels: patch-pending (was: ) > Remove dependency on Maven Ant Tasks > ------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-17750 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17750 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build, Dependencies, Packaging > Reporter: Abe Ratnofsky > Assignee: Abe Ratnofsky > Priority: Normal > Labels: patch-pending > > Apache Cassandra depends on Maven Ant Tasks (MAT) during build, for declaring > dependencies and generating POM files from within build.xml. MAT has long > been retired (no commits since maintenance in 2015), has registered CVEs in > dependencies (CVE-2017-1000487), and encourages migration to its successor, > Maven Artifact Resolver Ant Tasks (MARAT). > As part of CASSANDRA-16391 > <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16391>, mck migrated > dependency resolution to MARAT, but MAT is still included in our build for > generating POMs since MARAT does not have an alternative to the writepom task > provided by MAT. I have a patch ready that removes MAT completely, with a > workaround for POM generation. > I am not advocating for any kind of migration away from Ant to an alternative > like Gradle or Maven, just to be extra clear. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
