It seems that the guava versions are not API compatible, so shading is unlikely to help. You will need to downgrade to a compatible version of guava or get the other projects to upgrade. -M

I could not add all the details here because of size limitation. In a project I am using Guava 23.5 but some of the dependencies (hadoop & hbase) are using old Guava 14. This is causing an exception during runtime As mentioned here <https://www.elastic.co/blog/to-shade-or-not-to-shade> I tried to shade the Hbase dependency in a new module named shadedcdh. pom.xml looks like below ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <parent> <artifactId>main</artifactId> <groupId>com.vnera</groupId> <version>0.001-SNAPSHOT</version> </parent> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <artifactId>shaded-cdh</artifactId> <packaging>jar</packaging> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.hbase</groupId> <artifactId>hbase-testing-util</artifactId> <version>1.2.0-cdh5.7.0</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.hadoop</groupId> <artifactId>hadoop-client</artifactId> <version>${hadoop.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.hadoop</groupId> <artifactId>hadoop-common</artifactId> <version>${hadoop.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.hbase</groupId> <artifactId>hbase-client</artifactId> <!-- This must stay in sync with hbase version we deploy. --> <version>1.2.0-cdh5.7.0</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.4.1</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>shade</goal> </goals> <configuration> <relocations> <relocation> <pattern>com.google.common</pattern> <shadedPattern>shaded.com.google.common</shadedPattern> </relocation> </relocations> <transformers> <transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.

But this is still giving me the same exception. The dependency tree I have posted in the stackoverflow. I could not post here because of size limitation. Can someone let me know how can I avoid the conflict?
