Mihai Budiu commented on CALCITE-6577:
--------------------------------------
This would break all third parties that have built on top of Calcite - unless
the solution is 100% compatible. If the software works, why replace it?
> Replace Freemarker as template engine

> Key: CALCITE-6577
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-6577
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Minor
>
> The
> [freemarker|https://github.com/freemarker/fmpp/tree/master?tab=readme-ov-file]
> has been archived since January 2020. Also the fmpp-maven-plugin dates from
> 2010, and there has only been 1 version. Especially this plugin is
> problematic as it doesn't support incremental builds: it will always execute
> even if there are no changes to its sources.
> If there is any issue here, you'll be forced to either fork and patch or to
> switch to another engine (probably under high pressure).
> This issue is mainly warning that a well thought decision has to be made
> here, now that we are aware of the situation.
