KTE runtime dependencies

[Jerbell]

Hi - I'm trying to reduce dependency libraries in my app.

I've noticed that the docs say that jte-kotlin should be compile only (https://jte.gg/kotlin/): compileOnly "gg.jte:jte-kotlin:3.1.11". However, if I set normal JTE to be included at runtime, and jte-kotlin to be compileOnly then it doesn't work: You're missing the 'jte-kotlin' dependency in your project. Add the dependency:\n\npom.xml:\n<dependency>\n <groupId>gg.jte</groupId>\n <artifactId>jte-kotlin</artifactId>\n <version>2.2.1</version>\n</dependency>\n\nbuild.gradle or build.gradle.kts:\nimplementation("gg.jte:jte-kotlin:2.2.1")

Is it necessary to include jte-kotlin and by dependency kotlin-compiler-embeddable-1.9.10.jar for the runtime?

Thanks!

Hi @Jerbell,

that's odd, both and jte-runtime have no dependency to jte-kotlin.

Since gg.jte:jte-kotlin:2.2.1 is quite old, I'm wondering if this is being pulled in transitive, e.g. by another framework?

[Jerbell]

I didn't notice the version but yes that's old. There are no other front end frameworks & can't imagine one including jte-kotlin. I'll have more of a look.

[Jerbell]

I should clarify this is an app start up/runtime error, not a compile error.

[Jerbell]

Also the KTE files are included in a sub-module. So we're talking about a jar inside the jar. (not sure if this is relevant, but maybe it is) If this isn't making sense I could do up a small sample project to demonstrate.

[Jerbell]

Also (sorry about the spam) generate() and precompile() both have the same issues.

Can you post the full stack trace for that error? Also, what is the output of running ./gradlew dependencies?

[Jerbell]

I'm so sorry - it looks like this is coming from Javalin!

I'll hunt this down more & close when I've resolved where the issue is.

Ok - so it turns out I had some code in there which checked at runtime we had the required dependencies. I apologise for wasting your time. Thanks!
