Julien Nioche commented on NUTCH-1371: -------------------------------------- Does anyone have a bit of time to test this stuff? Would be nice to simplify the build architecture and get rid of Ivy if we can > 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 > Affects Versions: 1.7, 2.2.1 > Reporter: Julien Nioche > Assignee: Lewis John McGibbney > Fix For: 1.8, 2.4 > > Attachments: NUTCH-1371.patch, NUTCH-1371-plugins.trunk.patch, > NUTCH-1371-pom.patch, NUTCH-1371-r1461140.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. Most devs are also > more familiar with Maven, and it is well integrated in IDEs. 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 was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
