fyi, Caffeine only depends on annotations for static analysis. This allows users to catch mistakes easier, e.g. if using a null checker. Traditionally these could be marked as optional dependencies. Unfortunately bugs in scalac, javac, Java modules, etc could cause runtime failures if annotations are not found on the classpath. While that is a spec violation, it’s less risky to include at compile scope and ask users who are adverse to exclude transitives in their build system. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
