Robert Munteanu commented on OAK-7746:
--------------------------------------

[~stillalex] - that's a nice chunk of changes :-)

The only point where things are not clear-cut is the one you mentioned - 
supporting both {{Predicate}} classes. For instance in 
UuidPredicate/PropertyPredicate/UniversalFilter we have a number of options:

- support just the JDK {{Predicate}}
- support both {{Predicate}}s
- split classes so that each support only one {{Predicate}}

>From a backwards compatibility POV I think the most expensive could be 
>supporting both, since there might come a point where we stop using the Guava 
>{{Predicate}} and then we actually have to remove methods which leads to a 
>bigger BC problem.  It just might be safer to only support the JDK 
>{{Predicate}}

> Refactor TypePredicate location and usage

>             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: core, store-spi
>            Reporter: Alex Deparvu
>            Assignee: Alex Deparvu
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: modularization
>
> In the context of modularization I would like to move the TypePredicate class 
> to a dedicated package in store-spi (due to dependency on NodeState class). 
> See [0] for some more reasoning.
> Proposed patch [1].
> I'm concerned about the Predicate (guava) and Predicate (jdk) usage. I think 
> in a later guava release they will have Predicate extend the jdk version and 
> advise people to start using the latter, so I think the patch is taking a 
> step in a good direction, but would like to confirm this with others.
> Re. backwards compatibility, even if some packages are not exported (like 
> observation) I did my best to deprecate and add newer alternatives. If this 
> is not needed I can just drop the old methods.
