Ric Harris created VALIDATOR-499: ------------------------------------ Summary: Upgrade from commons-digester to commons-digester3 Key: VALIDATOR-499 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-499 Project: Commons Validator Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Ric Harris
It would be useful to be able to upgrade dependencies from {{commons-digester}} to the slightly newer {{commons-digester3}} which will likely receive further updates as commons libraries progress. However because the class {{FormSetFactory}} extends an abstract class from {{commons-digester}} this will require a new major version due to the incompatible change in the class hierarchy i.e. from {code} FormSetFactory extends org.apache.commons.digester.AbstractObjectCreationFactory {code} to {code} FormSetFactory extends org.apache.commons.digester3.AbstractObjectCreationFactory<FormSet> {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
