Alex Herbert updated RNG-182:
-----------------------------
Component/s: bom
> Bill of Materials (BOM)
> -----------------------
>
> Key: RNG-182
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RNG-182
> Project: Commons RNG
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: bom, client-api, core, sampling, simple
> Affects Versions: 1.5
> Reporter: Alex Herbert
> Assignee: Alex Herbert
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.5
>
>
> In 1.5 the multi-module project rearranges a few methods to default interface
> methods in a different module. This is binary compatible. However it requires
> that all versions of the modules are matched. If the other modules are
> explicitly imported by a transitive dependency as a lower version then this
> will cause a runtime error due to missing methods.
>
> I suggest we create a Bill of Materials (BOM) as a separate artifact to be
> deployed to maven for dependency management. Downstream users can then
> include this in their POM and all versions of the RNG modules would be
> matched.
