Add module-info.java #2970

Open hrchu opened 7 years ago

hrchu commented 7 years ago

So that projects depend on this can be published to a public artifact repository. Note that this is not breaking backward compatibility. All codes except this file can be still compiled in Java 6.

jbduncan commented 1 year ago

@bowbahdoe Wow, excellent work! I see now how sorely mistaken I was in my 2017 message when I asked if Automatic-Module-Name was sufficient. It is most certainly not. Well done discovering all this! 👏

sgammon commented 8 months ago

Has this seen any motion? We want to use jlink, but we can't because Guava is one of the last libraries on the list to ship a module-info. JDK 22 is coming this month, so JDK 8 or JDK 11 support as a new minimum would probably be okay for many users.

Guava is also one of the hardest modules to patch, replace, override, or remove entirely

This is probably a big enough and breaking enough change that it should be done from inside Google, but if you guys are open to PRs let me know.

cpovirk commented 7 months ago

It it true that this remains not a priority for us. It seems inevitable that we'll do it someday, but it's waiting behind lots of other things.

Maybe the way to go here is to identify the minimal set of changes. Like, if we are willing to depend on jdk.unsupported and java.logging for the moment (assuming that that's possible, especially for jdk.unsupported), and if we're willing to not worry about SecurityManager and finalization yet, then how much is left? There's obviously the build setup, and it looks like we'd want to migrate from the separate @J2ObjCIncompatible annotation to some package-private copies so that we can remove it as a dep. What else is there? Is the best way to find out to put the build setup in place, at least in a branch or conditionally?

There are probably PRs that we could accept, and I'd probably be willing to mess around to make sure that any patches work with, e.g. J2CL internally. But this is another case in which I don't want to give people the green light and then discover (only after people have done the work) that the changes are more disruptive than I'd expected.

bowbahdoe commented 7 months ago

@sgammon this won't help if guava is a transitive dependency, but for what its worth I am still maintaining that modularized mechanical fork. I haven't had time to update to the latest release, but i'll get to that eventually.

Another thing we can do is come up with a sanctioned moditect config - that build plugin can inject a module-info into your specific project. Not what we want long term considering how many transitive dependency graphs guava is on, but might be enough for your situation rn.

moditect, if you haven't heard of it - https://github.com/moditect/moditect

sgammon commented 7 months ago

@cpovirk I happen to be familiar with J2CL and Bazel. Let me see if I can isolate a minimal suite of changes. @bowbahdoe Thank you for this link, too, I will see if Moditect can make things simpler.

sgammon commented 7 months ago

Hey everybody,

I've gotten started on the work needed to land this. It may take awhile but I think a PR could be accomplished soon, so long as it uses some pre-packaged JARs while we wait for JPMS-enabled releases upstream. If you need Guava to support JPMS, now would be a good time to say so, so that Google knows this is worth the effort (respectfully, of course; don't hound the maintainers or anything).

Guava is number 1 in the Core Utilities category on Maven Central, and number 4 in terms of overall rank (globally) for all artifacts. Fully modular Java builds require a --modulepath and in some cases ban or frustrate the use of Automatic Modules. So, it stands to reason that fully modular Java is out of reach for most apps and libraries, if only because Guava is likely to appear somewhere in the transitive dependency graph.

JPMS is great because it offers faster compile times, better security/isolation in some ways, and so on. It is frustrating in other ways. But certainly it is not going away. Hopefully Guava supporting JPMS can make modular Java a possibility for all of us downstream. 👍

You got my vote.

sgammon commented 7 months ago

Hello everybody!

Firstly, wow, thank you for the support on that comment! As you've probably seen from this issue, there has been a lot of motion on this from Google, and they deserve a big thank you for this (especially @cushon and @cpovirk!).

I'm commenting here now because Guava with JPMS is ready to try. It's early, but the tests all pass and there are samples building successfully.

Current state of things

Library versions

The JPMS Attic repo has all of the below libraries, i.e. everything transitively needed to fully build Guava (+ potentially your library or app) via modular Java. The repository contents are fully on GitHub for easy inspection. They don't build on GitHub yet (I'd like to do this so there is clear provenance), but they will shortly.

Until official Maven releases, these libraries have versions suffixed with -jpms, in order to avoid conflicts with Maven Central. Here's the table of artifacts available now:

Coordinate Version
com.google.errorprone:error_prone_annotations 2.25.0-jpms
com.google.guava:guava 33.0.0-jre-jpms
com.google.j2objc:j2objc-annotations 3.0.0-jpms
org.checkerframework:checker-qual 3.43.0-SNAPSHOT

Dependency Verification

Obviously, these artifacts are not yet signed with Google's GPG keys. In the meantime I have signed them with mine. This matches commit signatures on GitHub for the changes applied. Key fingerprint is:

Trying it out

Here are some inlined instructions for using the JPMS Attic repo in your build. If something isn't covered here that you need, check the GitHub repo, file an issue, or let me know here with a tag:

Maven

There is a Maven sample used in integration tests

  <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>jpms-attic</id>
      <name>JPMS Attic</name>
      <url>https://jpms.pkg.st/repository</url>
    </repository>
  </repositories>

Gradle

There is a Gradle sample used in integration tests

Groovy
repositories {
    maven {
        url "https://jpms.pkg.st/repository"
    }
}
Kotlin
repositories {
    maven {
        url = uri("https://jpms.pkg.st/repository")
    }
}

Other notes

Would you rather use a Maven BOM, or a Gradle Version Catalog? Do you need to constrain versions to these JPMS libraries transitively, using a Gradle Platform? All of these ancillary artifacts are also available from the JPMS attic repo.

There are probably PRs that we could accept, and I'd probably be willing to mess around to make sure that any patches work ... internally. But this is another case in which I don't want to give people the green light and then discover (only after people have done the work) that the changes are more disruptive than I'd expected.

@sgammon Please be aware of this comment and Guava's general stance on contributions. A lot of necessary work, but also racing well ahead of the maintainers and their priorities. It is often best to think of Google OSS as shared with the community, rather than driven by it, so as to realize it closely follows Google's internal needs rather than external ones. Your PRs are interesting and good work, but also quite large with Caliper to JMH migration, Java clean up, and lots of CI & build additions. Yet, most Googlers are only intimately familiar with Google's internal stack (Bazel, TAP) which also builds Guava for its usage. Therefore much of your work has to replicated into their internal stack and given a lack of a Google champion, that seems like a high bar.

I really like your ideas and direction but as a former Googler its hard for me to get bug fixes in from the outside. I'd recommend after proving it all out to split your work down into into small PRs with clear objectives, which could then be phased in incrementally as the Guava team has time. And certainly don't get demotivated by what I say, just be realistic that your work might be a PoC that guides them to support once that becomes a necessity.

sgammon commented 7 months ago

Hey @ben-manes,

Firstly, big fan of your work... Gradle Versions, Caffeine, so many libraries. I built an entire company (partly) on Caffeine. Shameless plug for Buildless, which soon will be fully free forever for open source.

I hope you will allow me to respond out-of-order here.

Your PRs are interesting and good work [...] I really like your ideas and direction

Want to say ahead of the rest of this that I will frame this in my mind. You're a giant and that's very kind. Thank you!

It is often best to think of Google OSS as shared with the community, rather than driven by it, so as to realize it closely follows Google's internal needs rather than external ones

You could not be more correct and that is a very healthy way to think about it.

Please be aware of this comment and Guava's general stance on contributions. A lot of necessary work, but also racing well ahead of the maintainers and their priorities

I am aware, and I know that JPMS is arguably a new feature, even though it maybe shouldn't be considered as such. I could argue that we're not that ahead of the maintainers here, given that the Guava team has had this under consideration for some time (speaking about just JPMS here for a moment). Your point stands, though, regardless of those arguments, that JPMS is not a priority inside Google, at least for OSS, and @cpovirk has been clear and honest about that, to his great credit.

Luckily, I've contributed to libraries at Google before (though nothing as widely used as Guava), so this is not a surprise at all and I totally understand that Googlers straddle several (sometimes diverging) priorities. The first few of these PRs are already merged on Error Prone, J2ObJC, and on Guava.

but also quite large with Caliper to JMH migration, Java clean up, and lots of CI & build additions

This was and remains my fear as well, and so I have split off the JDK 21 and CI stuff entirely. Each stands on its own, and the CI stuff is entirely optional. If the Guava team chooses not to merge these, no worries, we can rebase the JPMS pull cleanly and move on.

That said, I think you're right about Caliper vs. JMH. During that work I actually did figure out that the benchmarks were running from Maven, though probably not... reporting anywhere or doing anything. In any case, they should probably be left alone so that internal Google tooling stays working. At the very least this should be another split point in the PR.

The bench changes, thankfully, were made very late in the PR and stand alone, so those can be split away cleanly.

And certainly don't get demotivated by what I say, just be realistic that your work might be a PoC that guides them to support once that becomes a necessity

This is excellent feedback and I deeply appreciate you taking the time to share it. I don't find it demotivating at all. In fact, I am only further motivated because the feedback that has poured in so far has been great, including yours. Some of it positive, some of it not, but all really really useful and helpful and engaged.

I am consuming these artifacts myself for my own projects from the JPMS attic repo, and they are working fine after a few tweaks, so my code is not blocked by this, and others have an option to try it out early, too. I think, all of the above considered, the Guava project can take their time and we (the group of people who care about this, in this issue) can test, refine, and eventually get a very clear plan going that minimizes breakage downstream.

Anyway, thank you for sharing your thoughts. Honesty is an expensive gift.

jbduncan commented 7 months ago

@sgammon I'm in awe of your realistic and professional yet persistent approach to getting JPMS support and a better CI setup into Guava, as I'm acutely aware how Guava is more of a "throw over the fence" project than a community project, so well done and I wish you all the best moving things forward! 👍

sgammon commented 7 months ago

@jbduncan Thank you! That's very kind of you, but I'm standing on the shoulders of giants here. This issue was filed nearly 10 years ago. We should make custom jackets.

Update: Taking orders

Front Back
bowbahdoe commented 7 months ago

@sgammon I'll take one, but maybe just GUAVA 2970 on the front. I don't actually want anyone to ask me questions

cpovirk commented 3 months ago

The toolchain setup of https://github.com/google/guava/pull/7333 may lay the groundwork for continuing to run tests under JDK 8 even after we requires JDK 9 to build (at least if you want module-info). It may well be duplicative of existing work in #7094, which I still need to get back to :(

sgammon commented 3 months ago

@cpovirk Thank you for the ping; no worries, I'm happy to rebase or construct it again from scratch if needed.
