Dieter Vrancken commented on BUILDR-664:
----------------------------------------
The only case I've ever set it is when we needed a custom check, but then I
only added a jar containing just that check.
Interesting to learn about the case of annotation checks. Thanks!

> Key: BUILDR-664
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-664
> Project: Buildr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.4.10
> Reporter: Dieter Vrancken
> Assignee: Peter Donald
> Priority: Minor
>
> The experimental Buildr::Checkstyle addon contains the following method:
> def extra_dependencies
> @extra_dependencies ||= [self.project.compile.dependencies,
> self.project.test.compile.dependencies].flatten
> end
> Also, checkstyle itself depends on an ancient version of google-collections
> library.
> We were bitten by this in that our code depends on a newer version of the
> guava library (successor to google-collections) in which a method used by
> checkstyle has been removed.
> Since checkstyle does not require access to the runtime dependencies of the
> code that is checked, I propose to make the default value of
> @extra_dependencies empty: [].
