Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Guava 15/21 warning

Hi


I think the possible solution of 'uses' directives is too hard since we lack tooling, a demonstration that it works for SimRel, or a document describing how to do 'uses' directives automatically within a standard Eclipse.


But if we all move to Guava 21 the problem will go away, just as it did for Luna. My projects (OCL, QVTd) have moved to tolerate Guava 21 since Xtext seems ok with Guava 21.


Please move to Guava 21. If you can do accurate 'uses' directives, please do that too.

Sorry, I lost track of the thread a bit. What's the conclusion? Should projects continue using 15.0.0 or upgrade to a more recent one?


Thank you,

Hi Ed,

I'll try, although the PDE tooling isn't that great [1, 2]. IMHO, bnd is
far better at automatically identifying uses constraints (although you
can still cheat it by using reflection), but most Eclipse projects use
Tycho and manifest-first builds, so I guess that's what the Wiki page
should focus on.

FYI, if you don't mind (and the OCL Oomph setup is up-to-date) I may use
OCL as a running example.

I agree, reports would be great. I am not aware of any tooling for this,
though. The maven-bundle-plugin focuses on *generating* MANIFEST.MFs
with uses constraints rather than checking the uses constraints of
existing MANIFEST.MFs. Also, I don't think PDE has a tool that could
easily be turned in a manifest checker. :-(

Best wishes,

Andreas
