cloud-foundrysap-cloud-sdk

neo-java-web-api compiles with non-existant version

I am using the SAP Cloud SDK in the dependency management section

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.sap.cloud.sdk</groupId>
            <artifactId>sdk-bom</artifactId>
            <version>3.75.0</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

and when I use the dependency

<dependencies>
...
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.sap.cloud</groupId>
        <artifactId>neo-java-web-api</artifactId>
        <version>4.32.5</version>
    </dependency>
...
</dependencies>

managed by the first one, the version that tries to compile is 4.32.0, but this version doesn't exist. I need to force it to the near 4.32.5

This issue occurred from 3.74.0 version of the SAP Cloud SDK

Solution

  • I'm from the SAP Cloud SDK team and I greatly appreciate the hint. Usually we assume developers deploying to Neo would also rely on the internal SAP Artifactory Maven repository. Ihis is why the problem didn't occur earlier, I guess.

    In the future we will make sure for the Neo dependencies from the BOM to rely on versions that exist both on Maven Central and SAP Artifactory. Starting from SAP Cloud SDK 3.76.0.

    It seems like your project requires the compiler to work with the dependency com.sap.cloud:neo-java-web-api. For some other reason the dependency is in compile or provided scope in your application.

    In the future with the next major release of SAP Cloud SDK the BOM no longer defines this dependency. Maybe this will make things easier for you.
