[jira] Commented: (FELIX-396) split-package warnings during embedding of transitive dependencies

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-396?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12539852 ] 

Peter Kriens commented on FELIX-396:
------------------------------------

Hear! Hear!

Felix, I agree. This is a real warning, if you have it, then the same
packages on the class path multiple times with different content. This
is a source for extremely obscure and hard to debug errors.

Kind regards,

     Peter Kriens

FMJ> -----------------------------------------

FMJ> In fact, this message is very valuable exactly because of the
FMJ> complex dependency tress that may exist from maven projects. This
FMJ> generally means that you have to be very carefull when defining
FMJ> your project possibly working with dependency exclusions to
FMJ> exactly decalre what you are expecting.

FMJ> And yes, there are many projects out there, which just pack too
FMJ> much dependencies and generate strange dependencies trees - one
FMJ> time I came over project which had a compile dependency on junit
FMJ> (and this project was not meant for testing :-) ).

FMJ> So I opt for not doing anything here - except perhaps enhancing documentation on the wiki page.

> When using plugin with <Embed-Transitive>true</Embed-Transitive> and more or less complex dependency tree it is really easy to receive the following warning:
> [WARNING] Warning building bundle org.foo:boo-bundle:bundle:0.0.1 : There are split packages, use directive -split-package:=(merge-first|merge-last) on instruction to get rid of this warning: META-INF, classpath: [Jar:., <skipped>] from: C:\repo\commons-io\commons-io\1.3.1\commons-io-1.3.1.jar
> Ideally plugin should take care of this by using Maven's dependency resolution mehanisms, so there won't be any conflicting jars.
> Also note that when <Embed-Dependency>*;inline=false</Embed-Dependency> and above warning happens, plugin also include multiple versions of the jar file into the result bundle.
