[jira] [Commented] (DRILL-1733) Add support executables to tarball so Drill runs without external requirements on Windows

["Patrick Wong (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-1733?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14250907#comment-14250907 ] 

Patrick Wong commented on DRILL-1733:
-------------------------------------

1. This requires storing binaries in source, which can cause problems for the repo.

2. The required binaries are different for every single release of Hadoop. Consequently, we would need winutils for CDH, winutils for HDP, winutils for MapR, and so on. These are not necessarily Apache-licensed.
