Lewis John McGibbney commented on NUTCH-1371: --------------------------------------------- Hi Julien. So what is the plan here? I know that this patch is just a start. It does not take into consideration the plugin dependencies which I suppose should also be managed via Maven. In addition, the ivy directory should ideally be removed. The maven-ant-tasks jar can then be added to out lib directory. > Replace Ivy with Maven Ant tasks > -------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-1371 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1371 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: build > Reporter: Julien Nioche > Fix For: 1.7, 2.2 > > Attachments: NUTCH-1371.patch > > > We might move to Maven altogether but a good intermediate step could be to > rely on the maven ant tasks for managing the dependencies. Ivy does a good > job but we need to have a pom file anyway for publishing the artefacts which > means keeping the pom.xml and ivy.xml contents in sync.

Going the > ANT+MVN way also means that we don't have to rewrite the whole building > process and can rely on our existing script -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
