We had this as a dependency for legacy dependencies that still needed
the Log4j 1.2 API. This appears to no longer be necessary, so this
commit removes this artifact as a dependency.
To remove this dependency, we had to fix a few places where we were
accidentally relying on Log4j 1.2 instead of Log4j 2 (easy to do, since
both APIs were on the compile-time classpath).
Finally, we can remove our custom Netty logger factory. This was needed
when we were on Log4j 1.2 and handled logging in our own unique
way. When we migrated to Log4j 2 we could have dropped this
dependency. However, even then Netty would still pick up Log4j 1.2 since
it was on the classpath, thus the advantage to removing this as a
dependency now.
The new implementation is functional equivalent with the old, ant based one.
It parses task standard error to get the missing classes and violations in the same way.
I considered re-using ForbiddenApisCliTask but Gradle makes it hard to build inheritance with tasks that have task actions , since the order of the task actions can't be controlled.
This inheritance isn't dully desired either as the third party audit task is much more opinionated and we don't want to expose some of the configuration.
We could probably extract a common base class without any task actions, but probably more trouble than it's worth.
Closes#31715
This commit modifies the build to require JDK 9 for
compilation. Henceforth, we will compile with a JDK 9 compiler targeting
JDK 8 as the class file format. Optionally, RUNTIME_JAVA_HOME can be set
as the runtime JDK used for running tests. To enable this change, we
separate the meaning of the compiler Java home versus the runtime Java
home. If the runtime Java home is not set (via RUNTIME_JAVA_HOME) then
we fallback to using JAVA_HOME as the runtime Java home. This enables:
- developers only have to set one Java home (JAVA_HOME)
- developers can set an optional Java home (RUNTIME_JAVA_HOME) to test
on the minimum supported runtime
- we can test compiling with JDK 9 running on JDK 8 and compiling with
JDK 9 running on JDK 9 in CI
With Gradle 4.1 and newer JDK versions, we can finally invoke Gradle directly using a JDK9 JAVA_HOME without requiring a JDK8 to "bootstrap" the build. As the thirdPartyAudit task runs within the JVM that Gradle runs in, it needs to be adapted now to be JDK9 aware.
This commit also changes the `JavaCompile` tasks to only fork if necessary (i.e. when Gradle's JVM and JAVA_HOME's JVM differ).
JDK9 removed pathname canonicalization when constructing FilePermission objects, which breaks some of the FilePermissions added by
Elasticsearch. This commit adds the system property jdk.io.permissionsUseCanonicalPath which makes JDK9 behave like JDK8 w.r.t. FilePermissions (see
https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/21534).
As discussed at https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-cloud-azure/issues/91#issuecomment-229113595, we know that the current `discovery-azure` plugin only works with Azure Classic VMs / Services (which is somehow Legacy now).
The proposal here is to rename `discovery-azure` to `discovery-azure-classic` in case some users are using it.
And deprecate it for 5.0.
Closes#19144.
