[GitHub] [beam] kennknowles opened a new issue, #18881: Do not force our fixed dependency versions on all configurations, but only those we know about

[GitBox <gi...@apache.org>]

kennknowles opened a new issue, #18881:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/18881

   One example is the errorprone plugin has its own configuration which has nothing to do with our code. To use a different version of guava we do:
   
   ```
   
       apply plugin: 'net.ltgt.errorprone'
       dependencies {
         errorprone 'com.google.guava:guava:22.0'
   
        errorprone 'com.google.errorprone:error_prone_core:2.2.0'
       }
   
   ```
   
   
   But our build_rules.gradle has a bug that makes this not work, because we do:
   
   ```
   
     configurations.all {
       resolutionStrategy {
         force library.java.values()
       }
     }
   
   ```
   
   
   Instead of this "big hammer" approach, we should figure out a correct way to configure things. Possibly this should just be a list of a few Java configurations.
