-------------------------------------------
Summary: Remove gperfutils from Gremlin Console
Key: TINKERPOP-2182
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2182
Project: TinkerPop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: console
Affects Versions: 3.3.5
Reporter: stephen mallette
Assignee: stephen mallette
We long ago stopped espousing the use of the groovy benchmarks/performance libs
in Gremlin Console. Not sure why they are still packaged in there with the
distribution except that the utilities plugin references the classes in its
auto-import. I also think they are somewhat bound to Groovy 2.4.x and TinkerPop
3.4.x is on Groovy 2.5.x. I'd say it's best to remove them from both {{tp33}}
and {{master}} at this point.
Marking this with the "breaking" label because it means uses who might oddly
depend on {{gremlin-console}} for this dependency will need to add it
themselves now and not rely on it transitively. Highly unlikely I would
imagine. It is also breaking if folks somehow actually use these classes in
their use of the console.The workaround to bring these libs back in is pretty
simple - just use the {{:install}} command and do some imports. This can be
documented in the upgrade docs. Taken all together, this seems like a low risk
breaking change.
