Hi, people! I bumped into a problem with some third-party libraries (namely, dasein-cloud-nimbula) that I am trying to use within a plugin. The library depends on log4j version no less than 1.2.15, but jenkins.war contains 1.2.9 that has classpath precedence over one supplied in plugin (or I guess so). That conflict causes *java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.log4j.Logger.isTraceEnabled()Z* errors due to the method absent in 1.2.9.
mvn depency:tree points that log4j dependency comes from a * org.acegisecurity.acegi-security* dependency in core/pom.xml, put pom for the acegi-security contains no version specification in log4j dependency. see here<http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/acegisecurity/acegi-security/1.0.5/acegi-security-1.0.5.pom> My questions are: 1. can log4j in Jenkins be promoted to the latest version? If so, I could create a pull request as soon as someone points me the way to do it. 2. how can I override that dependency problem in my plugin's pom.xml? Maybe, thats not a problem at all. Testbed that gives me the error is *mvn hpi:run* in my plugin dev project. TY for any help or hints.
