| Re: [orbit-dev] bundle for javax.annotation.Nullable |
Not exactly the same version, but Eclipse IP didn't let m2e ship jsr350
early this year. I wasn't motivated enough to challenge their decision,
so I don't know if it was "NO-WAY" or "not-sure-but-better-be-safe" kind
of "no".

______________________________________________________________________________________________Hi,
we are consuming the Orbit Guava bundle and came across an error that
javax.annotation.Nullable can not be resolved while trying to extend
Guava classes. The javax.annotation package isn't needed at runtime (so
the bundle works fine) and is only an optional package import in the
Guava bundle but it would be helpful to have the annotations for
development.
I looked around and there is a javax.annotation bundle in Orbit but it
doesn't contain the Nullable annotation. It appears that JSR 305 under
which these annotations were proposed is dormant [1] so the annotations
never became standard but nevertheless a reference implementation is
already available on Maven Central and consumed by libraries such as Guava.
I was wondering if attempts have been made to provide the JSR 305 RI [2]
as an Orbit bundle or if this topic has already been discussed elsewhere?
Thanks,
Steffen
