-----------------------------------

> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-13121
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13121
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Gradle
> Affects Versions: 18.12.16
> Reporter: Jacques Le Roux
> Assignee: Jacques Le Roux
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 18.12.16

> Following this conversation
> [https://lists.apache.org/thread/lnfvbfm5wfyhj6f111njo8movwd84ylr]
> With here an excerpt:
> {quote}
> We have abandoned this feature for years as it was no longer usable (too much
> false positive in large numbers).
> [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/About+OWASP+Dependency+Check]
> The last time I tried to use it was after the last commit for
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10700
> [http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ofbiz/ofbiz-framework/trunk/build.gradle?r1=1854818&r2=1854817&pathrev=1854818]
> I just tried and got this:
> {noformat}
> C:\projectsASF\Git\ofbiz-framework>gradlew -PenableOwasp
> dependencyCheckAnalyze
> Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)
> [...]
> > Task :dependencyCheckAnalyze
> Verifying dependencies for project ofbiz
> Checking for updates and analyzing dependencies for vulnerabilities
> An NVD API Key was not provided - it is highly recommended to use an NVD API
> key as the update can take a VERY long time without an API Key
> {noformat}
> Actually nothing happens in a reasonable time and I bet it would be mostly
> unusable. You though may try to follow the NVD API key way, whatever it is.
> I forgot to remove this information in the main README files (actually in all
> OFBiz versions supported). You see the README trunk version GH repo.
>
> Thanks to your report I'll remove this information and the related code in a
> week, except if you come back with something positive.
