-----------------------------------

             Summary: Introduce Maven/Gradle/etc. based build for Sqoop to make 
it more developer friendly / open
                 Key: SQOOP-3052
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-3052
             Project: Sqoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Attila Szabo
             Fix For: 1.4.7


The current trunk version can only be build with Ant/Ivy combination, which has 
some painful limitations (resolve is slow / needs to be tweaked to use only 
caches, the current profile / variable based settings are not working in IDEs 
out of the box, the current solution does not download the related sources, 
etc.)

It would be nice to provide a solution, which would give the possibility for 
the developers to choose between the nowadays well used build infrsturctures 
(e.g. Maven, Gradle, etc.). For this solution it would be also essential to 
keep the different build files (if there is more then one) synchronized easily, 
and the configuration wouldn't diverege by time. Test execution has to be 
solved also, and should cover all the available test cases.

In this scenario:
If we can provide one good working solution is much better, then provide three 
different ones which become out of sync easily.
