Bennie Schut commented on HIVE-4305: ------------------------------------ While I think both systems have their merits it just seems like most developers already use maven: http://java.dzone.com/articles/maven-vs-ivy-numbers I personally also only use ivy for Hive. I'ts not the best argument but if we would like to attract more developers perhaps not a bad one. > Use a single system for dependency resolution > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4305 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4305 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build Infrastructure, HCatalog > Reporter: Travis Crawford > > Both Hive and HCatalog use ant as their build tool. However, Hive uses ivy > for dependency resolution while HCatalog uses maven-ant-tasks. With the > project merge we should converge on a single tool for dependency resolution. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
