Hi,
I’ve currently
set the ModelExplorer dependency to Guava 10 or 11
(Excluding 12). So far, so good, but it might be better for
the long term to remove all usages of
deprecated/experimental Guava APIs, and relax the dependency
constraints, especially since many plug-ins actually declare
Guava-based APIs.
I’ve also
removed all dependencies to the old
com.google.collect/com.google.inject and replaced them with
Guava.
Regards,
Camille
Hi Camille
I just checked a new M3 installation.
MWE contributes Guava 10, then Xpand/Xtend and Xtext are
happy.
So maybe enforcing 10 for a while may be ok.

Hi Ed,
Well, I don’t
really have any better solution. Guava APIs move really
fast, which makes it difficult to actually fix the issues
(And the sources don’t seem to be included in Orbit). I
don’t really feel like exploring new Guava APIs every 6
months to find the replacement for each deprecated method.
Soft
dependencies are not a solution either, because it will just
not work on Guava >= 11.0.x (The method doesn’t exist
anymore).
As we don’t
reexport the Guava dependency, and probably don’t expose it
too much to the outside, I have the feeling that
explicit/restricted dependencies is the best (only?) way to
go.

Hi Camille
Explicit bounds creates significant hazards that users who
install Papyrus and something else will have an exciting time.
I hope the use of explicit bounds in Papyrus will be
prohibited from at least M6 inwards.
NB Guava 12 is Java 6 and Luna is unuseable on Java 5 so
installing Guava 11 may not be practical with DI and other
clever facilities.

Use an explicit dependency to
Guava [10.0.0, 11.0.0) (i.e. excluding Guava >= 11.0.0)
