Hi all, I’d like to draw your attention to SOLR-12461: Upgrade Dropwizard Metrics to 4.0.5 release.
The upgrade would've been straightforward if not for the fact that Dropwizard removed support for Ganglia reporter in 4x due to a transitive LGPL dependency (on remotetea). We have to upgrade this library on master - version 3x is not compatible with Java 11 (due to the internal use of sun.misc.Unsafe), so the Ganglia reporter on master is a goner either way. The question remains what to do about 8x. We could stick to Metrics 3 on branch 8x in order to preserve back-compat, but Metrics 4 contains many important bug fixes and improvements so it’s a shame to have to keep using Metrics 3 for the complete lifecycle of 8x... I’m rather inclined to break the back-compat (ever so slightly ;) ) for the greater good - do the upgrade and remove Ganglia in 8x, and put a note in CHANGES to that effect. What do people think about this? — Andrzej Białecki --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
