Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-7534:
----------------------------------------
Jacopo, Taher,
About Birt and Solr, this is what I fear with the changes with Gradle. I dont'
know exactly either for Birt and Solr, but if ever we have OOTB code connected
to (eg) specific Birt or Solr versions we will need to clean things in our code
(or in Gradle setting?) if Gradle blindly downloads the last versions. For
instance how to decide to pick Tomcat 8, 8.5 or 9?
Also you know I put in place the OWASP Dependency Check (I have to work on that
again, we have few vulnerabilites) I wonder if/how we will have to tweak Gradle
to handle those aspects, still in haze for now, anyway steps after steps... ;)
