Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-2424: -------------------------------------- There's a Thrift dependency on the MR classpath because we use Thrift to serialize the query plan. As for the other dependencies, json and commons-lang are both required by a bunch of UDFs, and javaewah is required by the UDFs that generate bitmap indexes. I don't think there's going to be much support for splitting these out into separate JARs because it increases the chances of jobs failing due to unsatisfied dependencies. @Travis: Any chance you'd be willing to investigate the JarJar approach? > Don't expose thrift, commons and json classes in the hive exec jar > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2424 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2424 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build Infrastructure > Reporter: Eli Collins > > The hive exec jar includes exploded thrift, json, and commons lang classes. > These may conflict with the user's classpath. This could be fixed by jar > jaring or using shade. A mechanism that allowed a user to substitute > alternative versions w/o recompiling might be a useful intermediate step > (though will require the user substitute alternative versions that work w/ > Hive). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
