Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-92:
---------------------------------------
It further occurs to me that the only *jars* you will ever need to depend on in
ACF are the ones that you'd build connectors against. So, now I'm getting
glimmers of a possible combined maven/ivy build where we have only one maven
target, which is basically the jars acf-core, acf-core-ui, acf-agents, and
acf-pull-agent, and where every other module in ACF is built using ivy to pull
down dependencies that are needed. Of course, this would presume you wanted to
build connectors independently of building ACF itself, which I could go either
way on at the moment...
> Move from ant to maven or other build system with decent library management

> I am looking at the current project structure. If we want to make another
> build tool available I think we need to change the directory structure. I
> tried to place a suggestion in an image. Can you please have a look at it. If
> we agree that this is a good way to go, than I will continue to work on a
> patch. Which might be a bit hard with all these changing directories, but
> I'll do my best to at least get an idea whether it would be working.
> So I have three questions:
> - Do you want to move to maven or put maven next to ant?
> - Do you prefer another build mechanism [ant with ivy, gradle, maven3]
> - Do you have an idea about the amount of scripts that need to be changed if
> we change the project structure
> The image of a possible project layout (that is based on the maven standards)
> is attached to the issue
