Alex Deparvu commented on OAK-7182:
-----------------------------------
bq. or to use reflection to support old and new Guava?
I went ahead and added a prototype of this based on the latest patch [0], just
to see how crazy it would look.
I ended up with 2 classes wrapping the guava apis. The executor stuff is still
ok [1], but the toStringHelper is pretty weird [2], we have to remap the entire
api footprint, it would be easier to rewrite it (or just copy the code over).
I hope this gets the discussion moving again, I would love to see this resolved
in some way.
