> The Drill JDBC POM file pulls in so many unused transitive dependencies that it takes quite a while to exclude all the unnecessary ones when using it from within a Java project.  This is similar to DRILL-3581 in that you can work around it via exclusions of transitive dependencies, but since it makes interoperability with other open-source projects problematic, this will keep coming up for anyone using the JDBC driver from within any serious java app.
> Considering the pom:
> http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/drill/exec/drill-jdbc/1.1.0/drill-jdbc-1.1.0.pom
> ...it seems that most of the unused dependencies are transitive from drill-common and perhaps also drill-java-exec.  Here's an example of some dependencies that the JDBC driver shouldn't need (and we excluded in our project):
> parquet-*
> jetty-server
> javassist
> commons-daemon
> hibernate-validator
> xalan
> xercesImpl
> For the record we are now able to use the JDBC driver fine from within our project, but it did take some dependency tree analysis (and a little trial-and-error) to figure out what to exclude.  We would like to save future developers that time.
