Spring Generics (v4.2.5) Build Status

Tip with Gratipay Tip with BitcoinBitcoin

This library is a procedural extraction (eg 'shaded jar') comprised of the generics utilities from the spring-core module of the Spring Framework project. Spring has some of the smartest generics resolution code available, but most developers are reluctant to bring a larger dependency like spring-core into their projects. Additionally, with so many users of Spring there is a higher chance of a problem arising due to dependency mismatches.

By repackaging select Spring classes, the aforementioned problems are easily avoided. The versioning here reflects the original Spring release version from where the code was extracted. Package names have been changed to protect the innocent. There are no transitive dependencies to worry about either.

Usage

The dependencies are deployed to Maven Central. To use, add the following to your build script:

Maven

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.unquietcode.tools.spring</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-generics</artifactId>
  <version>4.2.5</version>
</dependency>

Gradle

dependencies {
  compile 'com.unquietcode.tools.spring:spring-generics:4.2.5'
}
