Github user vlsi commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pull/221 >jloisel: Calcite is a database framework whose purpose is to be integrated into java applications JMeter's purpose is to be integrated with various plugins, so exposing extra core dependencies is not that good. I'm not sure if we could use OSGi-like approach so "JMeter core" and "plugins" could use different versions of the same library. That might be good in a long run, however it is not implemented AFAIK.
