Description

Currently drill-jdbc-all*.jar doesn't contain a META_INF/services/java.sql.Driver file which is apparently used to discover a service by Java ServiceLoader API.

Can drill jdbc driver have this file like all the other jdbc drivers so that the driver can be loaded using ServiceLoader instead of a direct Class.forName?
