Guillaume Nodet commented on MNG-6825: -------------------------------------- [~elharo] also, I don't really buy the argument that {{plexus-utils}} is not maintained, as there has been 6 releases in the last 2 years. And we can't get rid of {{plexus-utils}} (at least in the short term) because it contains stuff that's not available elsewhere (xml, dag), the other used stuff is mostly the {{StringUtils}} which we're currently dealing with, {{ReaderFactory}} / {{WriterFactory}} which I propose to deprecate in https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/plexus-utils/pull/236#issuecomment-1495903417. Fwiw, I'm all for getting rid of {{maven-shared-utils}}, which I agree, it not as maintained as the others. > Cleaning Up dependencies > plexus-utils/maven-shared-utils/commons-lang3/commons-io > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-6825 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6825 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Bootstrap & Build > Affects Versions: 3.6.3 > Reporter: Karl Heinz Marbaise > Assignee: Karl Heinz Marbaise > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.0.x-candidate > > > Experiment to see if we can get rid of commons-lang3 dependency. > * Identified code duplication between: > ** {{org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils}} from {{commons-lang3}} (501879 > Bytes commons-lang3-3.8.1.jar) > ** {{org.codehaus.plexus.util.StringUtil}} from {{plexus-utils}} (261801 > Bytes plexus-utils-3.2.1.jar) > ** {{org.apache.maven.shared.utils}} from {{maven-shared-utils}} (166562 > Bytes maven-shared-utils-3.2.1.jar) > ** We should replace the self implemented with > {{org.codehaus.plexus.util.StringUtil}}. or with {{maven-shared-utils}} > * {{commons-io}} usage by {{maven-shared-utils}} (208700 Bytes > commons-io-2.5.jar) -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
