             Summary: Convert compile dependencies to implementation/api dependencies
                 Key: GEODE-6532
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-6532
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: build, docs
            Reporter: Patrick Rhomberg


The {{compile}} configuration has been deprecated for some time.  {{api}} will behave similarly, whereas {{implementation}} will appear to be a {{runtime}} dependency to consumers.

This will require examining our public API so that we may correctly declare which dependencies are {{api}}.  When a PR is made, an email should be sent to the dev@ and/or user@ lists warning that those consuming internal APIs (against best practice) may experience breakages if their own dependencies are not properly declared.  Similarly, a release note on this topic could be helpful to those upgrading.
