How hard would it be to just fix this?

[bimargulies-google]

There are not a lot of good ways in Maven to deal with the collection of not-on-Maven-central dependencies. When the pom last worked, it was just Oracle, but now it's more. I could look at two strategies. 1: gradle instead of Maven. 2: taking all those JDBC drivers out of the Maven dependency graph. Nothing should be referencing them at compile time anyway. Which would you prefer?

@bimargulies-google We should probably switch to gradle. This is something that we have talked about but just didn't have time to do it.

I'll have myself a look.

I've got a gradle build. There's some cleanup if you want to commit to it -- deleting almost all of 'lib', and fixing up travis. To try it:

gradle installDist

./dist/bin/oltpbenchmark -b tpch -c config/tpch_sqlite.xml --create=true --load=true --execute=true -s 5 -o outputfile

Unfortunately, this hits an NPE even with the ant build on master, so I can't tell for sure that I've got all this sorted. Ideas?

@bimargulies-google Thanks for doing this. Can you be more specific about how to reproduce the NullPointerException?
