Ismaël Mejía reopened BEAM-4087: -------------------------------- This is still an issue even if the PR / approach was not merged. We still do not have a practical way to test multiple provided versions of a dependency, and this is probably the only issue bugging me still after 2 years of the move to gradle, we still work by faith based validation for things like multi version compatibility of Kafka and Spark. It is a pity because this is so simple to do in maven that still surprises me that it demands so much effort to get it done in gradle. I still think it is worth to explore a way to tackle this, or is there some new simpler way to do it now that I missed? > Gradle build does not allow to overwrite versions of provided dependencies > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BEAM-4087 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4087 > Project: Beam > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: build-system > Affects Versions: 2.5.0 > Reporter: Ismaël Mejía > Priority: Major > Labels: gradle > Fix For: Not applicable > > Time Spent: 4h 50m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > In order to test modules with provided dependencies in maven we can execute > for example for Kafka `mvn verify -Prelease -Dkafka.clients.version=0.9.0.1 > -pl 'sdks/java/io/kafka'` However we don't have an equivalent way to do this > with gradle because the version of the dependencies are defined locally and > not in the gradle.properties. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
