Dimitrios Efthymiou commented on IMAGING-309:
---------------------------------------------
[~ggregory] I didn't create this ticket. I would look through the code to see
if there are calculatins anywhere
that could be done by any of the math libraries. If you say that there are none
or not many
then I will not put time into it
> Depend on "Commons Numbers"
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: IMAGING-309
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAGING-309
> Project: Commons Imaging
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: imaging.common.*
> Reporter: Gilles Sadowski
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: dependencies, maintainability, robustness
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> It would make sense for high-level components such as [Imaging] to depend on
> lower level utilities developed within "Commons", such as [Numbers], where
> # changes in dependencies can be controlled by the same team, and
> # JAR hell is _not_ an issue (as per the project's policy on BC).
> Both [Imaging] and [Numbers] would benefit from such an ecosystem:
> * The low-level component is put to test in an actual use-case.
> * The high-level component does not need to maintain lower-level utilities.
> Motivation: IMAGING-285
> At a time, it might not have made sense to depend on a component like Commons
> Math (with its ever expanding code base) just for its {{Fraction}} class.
> Nowadays however, "Commons Numbers" provides the functionality in a dedicated
> [maven
> module|https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.commons/commons-numbers-fraction/1.0].
