[cross-project-issues-dev] org.apache.commons.codec

[Jonah Graham <jonah@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

I am trying to resolve a dependency problem - there are multiple versions of the following in  https://download.eclipse.org/staging/2020-03/plugins/

org.apache.httpcomponents.httpclient has 4.5.2, 4.5.6 and 4.5.10*

org.apache.commons.codec has versions 1.9.0, 1.10.0 and 1.13.0*

Of those only the * ones are in current orbit. 

What is the way to resolve this? At the moment, AFAICT for example, egit's simrel contribution requires jgit (org.eclipse.jgit.http.apache.feature.group) which requires o.a.h.httpclient 4.5.6 which requires o.a.c.codec 1.10.

This is causing me problems for CDT as when I tried to upgrade our target platform to Eclipse Platform's M3 contribution, I can no longer resolve egit because current orbit does not have the org.apache dependencies that egit/jgit needs.

This is not a new problem, 2019-12 had 2 versions of each of the above libraries, now we are at three of them.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Jonah
