> Hello dear tika contributors.
> In version 1.16, the dependency of org.json:json
> (https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.json/json/20140107)
> was replaced with com.tdunning:json
> (https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.tdunning/json/1.8)
> as part of TIKA-1804.
> I read and understand the reasons.
> The problem I see is that the package org.json is reused in the replacement
> lib (com.tdunning) therefore creating really ugly runtime problems for any
> application that might use the old org.json lib ( Douglas Crockford ) either
> directly or indirectly (And please note that there are still a lot of
> libraries that use that lib:
> https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.json/json/usages)
> *What is tika's recommendation for these kind of projects that have to(for
> various reasons) use directly or indirectly(brought in by another lib) that
> old org.json:json lib?*
> This topic has been discussed here also :
> https://github.com/tdunning/open-json/issues/11
> As you can see other people have this problem.
> They forked and released an alternative version, that is identical in
> functionality, but uses a different package name :
> https://github.com/openjson/openjson ->
> https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.github.openjson/openjson
> *Is there any plan to switch to the cleaner ("jar hell" free) implementation
> of json?*
> Thank you!
> I raised this as an improvement, as I think that is what needs to happen:
> move to the forked lib version to avoid package name collisions.
