-------------------------------------

             Summary: [hbase-operator-tools] build of hbck2 fails with HBase branch-2.3, due to missing edu.umd.cs.findbugs.annotations dependency
                 Key: HBASE-24482
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-24482
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: hbase-operator-tools
    Affects Versions: hbase-operator-tools-1.1.0
            Reporter: Matthew Foley


If we do a local build of the current HBase branch-2.3 as version 2.3.0-SNAPSHOT, and 'mvn install' it in the local maven repository, 

then attempt to build hbase-operator-tools master branch, with -Dhbase.version=2.3.0-SNAPSHOT, 

the HBCK2 class file HBCKMetaTableAccessor.java (line 25) fails to compile with error: "package edu.umd.cs.findbugs.annotations does not exist", followed by multiple instances of missing "symbol: class Nullable".  (A longer log extract is attached.)

It would appear the default HBase version 2.1.6 made this dependency package available in some manner, but the newer HBase does not.

If the @Nullable annotation is still needed, it may be sufficient to simply add it to the hbase-operator-tools pom.xml file, so maven will load it.  However, various commentary online suggest that we should be using the similar jsr305.jar (*{{javax.annotation)}}* instead; see eg
