Greg Harris commented on KAFKA-15203: ------------------------------------- The long term plan will be to make the reflections library less necessary via KAFKA-14627, and then the usage of reflections can be limited to the connect-plugin-path.sh script. We have not yet decided on a deprecation schedule and corresponding sunset date on the usage of this library. > Remove dependency on Reflections > --------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-15203 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15203 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: connect > Reporter: Divij Vaidya > Priority: Major > Labels: newbie > > We currently depend on reflections library which is EOL.
