SCR Annotations - SLF4J dependency needed in some usecases ----------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-1726 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1726 Project: Felix Issue Type: Bug Components: Maven SCR Plugin Affects Versions: maven-scr-plugin-1.4.0 Reporter: Stefan Seifert Priority: Minor Fix For: maven-scr-plugin-1.4.1 in rev. 821022 felix removed some dependencies that where unneeded for the code that existed in the scr plugin itself. there where unneeded to compile the plugin, but they are needed in some usecases for annotation parsing. e.g. if a project's class is annotated with SCR annotations, and at the same time declares a static field with a slf4j Logger class, reading other static string field values fails with a ClassNotFound exception pointing to a slf4j class. re-adding the slf4j dependencies again solves the problem. unfortunately the exception handling in this case is not good - the message is only "Somehing went wrong.", because the ClassNotFound exception was swallowed in ClassUtil.getInitializationExpression method. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
