             Summary: Explore alternative build systems
                 Key: LUCENE-5755
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5755
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Dawid Weiss
            Assignee: Dawid Weiss
            Priority: Minor


I am dissatisfied with how ANT and submodules currently work in Lucene/ Solr. 
It's not even the tool's fault; it seems Lucene builds just hit the borders of 
what it can do, especially in terms of submodule dependencies etc.

I don't think Maven will help much too, given certain things I'd like to have 
in the build (for example collect all tests globally for a single execution 
phase at the end of the build, to support better load-balancing).

I'd like to explore Gradle as an alternative. This task is a notepad for 
thoughts and experiments.

An example of a complex (?) gradle build is javafx, for example.
