Hard-Coded ScalaCheck Version Broken in Scala 2.7.2
---------------------------------------------------
Key: BUILDR-210
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-210
Project: Buildr
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Test frameworks
Affects Versions: 1.3.3
Reporter: Daniel Spiewak
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 1.3.4
With the release of Scala 2.7.2, the *hard-coded* ScalaCheck version (1.3) is
no longer sufficient. This version of ScalaCheck depends upon a method which
no longer exists within the Scala standard library. For the sake of Google,
this is the precise error message:
Exception "java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
scala.Stream$cons$.apply(Ljava/lang/Object;Lscala/Function0;)Ljava/lang/Object;"
raised on argument generation.
The solution is to use ScalaCheck 1.4 instead of 1.3. Just to make things even
more fun, Specs 1.3.1 does not work with ScalaCheck 1.4 (only with 1.3 and
earlier). This problem is fixed in the (still forthcoming) 1.3.2 release, but
until then, there will apparently be no running tests under Scala 2.7.2 using
Specs and ScalaCheck in conjunction. Sucks to be me...
This is an absolute killer for me. I use ScalaCheck quite extensively, which
means that I now have 300+ tests which now crash where before they ran fine.
If we can't get a release which either increments the hard-coded version or
provides a configurable option, could we at least get a patch which can be
applied manually to do the same?
