Claus Ibsen reassigned CAMEL-26694:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: Claus Ibsen
> Remove Roaster from the build tooling and camel-route-parser, in four stages
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CAMEL-26694
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-26694
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: camel-catalog, camel-package-maven-plugin, tooling
> Reporter: Claus Ibsen
> Assignee: Claus Ibsen
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.24.0
>
>
> Roaster (with the shaded Eclipse JDT, a 12 MB jar) is used only by build
> tooling and one catalog library, not at runtime. Removing it takes four
> stages, from small to large.
> h3. Where Roaster is used today
> ||Module||Files||What it is used for||
> |camel-package-maven-plugin|8|*javadoc* for the option descriptions
> (EndpointSchemaGeneratorMojo, SchemaGeneratorMojo, PackageDataFormatMojo,
> UpdateReadmeMojo, PrepareCamelMainMojo, JavadocUtil); only *annotation
> values* in PrepareCamelJBangMojo and DstWorldsHelper|
> |camel-route-parser|8|the old Java DSL route parser (RouteBuilderParser,
> RestDslParser, CamelJavaParserHelper and the other helpers)|
> |camel-api-component-maven-plugin|1|JavaSourceParser: the javadoc of API
> classes|
> |camel-report-maven-plugin|0|declares roaster-api and roaster-jdt, but no
> code uses them|
> h3. Stage 1: remove the unused dependency
> camel-report-maven-plugin declares roaster-api and roaster-jdt but uses
> neither: it reads Java routes with {{LwJavaParser}} (camel-java-io), and uses
> camel-route-parser only for {{XmlRouteParser}} and its model classes.
> h3. Stage 2: read annotations from the compiled classes
> PrepareCamelJBangMojo and DstWorldsHelper read only annotation values from
> the source. {{@Metadata}} has runtime retention, and the mojos already have
> the class loader of the project ({{AbstractGeneratorMojo}}), so they can read
> the annotations from the compiled classes. javac has already joined constants
> such as {{"a" + "b"}}, so the class of bug fixed by the quick fix PR #29341
> (a {{+}} in a camel-jbang option description) cannot happen.
> h3. Stage 3: deprecate the Java route parser of camel-route-parser
> {{LwJavaParser}} (design/java-dsl-parser.adoc) replaced it inside Camel;
> nothing in the repository uses RouteBuilderParser, RestDslParser and their
> helpers except their own tests. camel-route-parser is a public artifact (in
> the BOM) and may have users outside Camel, so: deprecate the Java parsers in
> 4.24 with an entry in the upgrade guide (pointing at {{LwJavaParser}}), keep
> {{XmlRouteParser}} and the model, and remove the Java parsers in a later
> release. Then camel-route-parser no longer needs Roaster.
> h3. Stage 4: read the javadoc with the JDK's own parser
> Replace the javadoc readers in camel-package-maven-plugin and
> JavaSourceParser of camel-api-component-maven-plugin with the javac tree API
> of the JDK ({{javax.tools}} and {{com.sun.source}} Trees / DocTrees, in the
> {{jdk.compiler}} module of every JDK): no third-party dependency, and always
> the Java version that builds Camel. JavaParser is an alternative if that API
> is awkward, at the cost of another dependency. One mojo at a time: the check
> of each PR is that regenerating the whole catalog (components, EIPs, data
> formats, Main options) gives no diff. Then remove {{roaster-version}} from
> parent/pom.xml.
