stephen mallette commented on TINKERPOP-1443:
---------------------------------------------
I just rebased this on {{tp32}} - as I think we are readying for a TinkerPop
release soon, i'd like to push putting this up for merge until after that
happens. At that point, we can force everyone to upgrade maven and get this
employed in full.

> Key: TINKERPOP-1443
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1443
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: build-release
> Affects Versions: 3.2.2
> Reporter: Lukas Krejci
>
> Tinkerpop 3.2.2 changed the signature of the method
> {{GraphTraversal.hasLabel}} from {{(String...)}} to {{(String, String...)}}.
> While this is certainly an improvement, it is both source and binary
> incompatible change.
> I.e. even if every usage of {{hasLabel}} had at least one parameter in the
> user code, none of those calls will work until all the user code is
> recompiled using Tinkerpop 3.2.2.
> I don't know the versioning policy of Tinkerpop but changes like the above in
> a micro/patch release are generally unexpected.
> Please consider API checkers like http://revapi.org to warn about such
> incompatible API changes...
