Matthew Foley commented on HBASE-24482:
---------------------------------------
As an experiment, I changed {{edu.umd.cs.findbugs.annotations.Nullable}} to
{{javax.annotation.Nullable}}, and added a javax.annotation dependency to the
hbase-hbck2 pom, as {{com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305}}
{{}}As expected, the original “cannot find symbol … Nullable” on
{{HBCKMetaTableAccessor}} went away, BUT a whole slew of new missing
symbols/dependencies showed up on {{hbck1}} paths. The compile failure log is
attached as HBASE-24482_missing_symbols_part_2.log
> [hbase-operator-tools] build of hbck2 fails with HBase branch-2.3, due to
> missing dependencies

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: hbase-operator-tools
> Affects Versions: hbase-operator-tools-1.1.0
> Reporter: Matthew Foley
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: HBASE-24482_compile_error.log,
> HBASE-24482_missing_symbols_part_2.log

> If we do a local build of the current HBase branch-2.3 as version
> 2.3.0-SNAPSHOT, and 'mvn install' it in the local maven repository,
> then attempt to build hbase-operator-tools master branch, with
> -Dhbase.version=2.3.0-SNAPSHOT,
> the HBCK2 class file HBCKMetaTableAccessor.java (line 25) fails to compile
> with error: "package edu.umd.cs.findbugs.annotations does not exist",
> followed by multiple instances of missing "symbol: class Nullable". (A
> longer log extract is attached.)
> It would appear the default HBase version 2.1.6 made this dependency package
> available in some manner, but the newer HBase does not.
> *Later Edit:* After addressing this missing dependency (see comment of 5 June
> below), it unmasked a bunch more, in the hbck1 code path. Please see second
> attachment.
> If the @Nullable annotation is still needed, it may be sufficient to simply
> add it to the hbase-operator-tools pom.xml file, so maven will load it.
> However, it is actually deprecated in the current documentation for
> edu.umd.cs.findbugs.annotations. Various commentary online suggest that we
> should be using the similar jsr305.jar (*{{javax.annotation)}}* instead; see
> eg

> Does anyone know if that was HBase's approach?
