[jira] [Commented] (PARQUET-267) Relax Third Party Dependency Restrictions

["Kalon Mills (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-267?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15083409#comment-15083409 ] 

Kalon Mills commented on PARQUET-267:
-------------------------------------

[~nongli] or whoever might be maintaining this now days.  I think the first hurdle to approaching parquet-cpp right now is the build config.  There are now three pull requests on the github repo updating this.  It would be great to get one of the merged so that others don't keep reimplementing the same workarounds.

> The existing repo has source code for third party dependencies checked into the repo.  The build system expects those dependencies in a certain place.  This enforces that the built library conform to those exact dependencies without customization.
> Managing third party dependencies is better handled through a build environment.  It allows the library builder more flexibility over dependency versions and locations.  It also cleans up the repo from this third party code.
