java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ProtoSchema - v5.0.1.Final

[markosalazar]

Using the new 5.0.1.Final dependency creates the following error:
Execution failed for task ':compileJava'.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/infinispan/protostream/annotations/ProtoSchema

This happens as soon as the annotation processor is added to the project. This also happens with all the other v5 versions. Any feedback on this ? Thank you

[tristantarrant]

can you paste the output of mvn dependency:tree here ?

[markosalazar]

I am using gradle. It works fine with version 4, but in version 5 I cannot get past this error.

[tristantarrant]

can you get the actual javac command being executed ?

[markosalazar]

Sorry Tristin, I am using gradle build not sure which specific javac command is being executed. Trying to check

[markosalazar]

Have also added this compiler arg from your doc:
tasks.withType(JavaCompile) {
configure(options) {
options.compilerArgs << '-Aprotostream-debug=true'
}
}
and this fails with key in annotation processor option '-Aprotostream-debug=true' is not a dot-separated sequence of identifiers

[tristantarrant]

org/infinispan/protostream/annotations/ProtoSchema is in org.infinispan.protostream:protostream
org.infinispan.protostream:protostream-processor depends on that library.
I'm asking about the command-line, because it depends on whether it is using --processor-path or the classpath and which -proc options are being set. Also, which JDK are you using ?

[markosalazar]

I am using JDK 17

[markosalazar]

Thanks for the feedback, the documentation only mentions one dependency which is the annotation processor dependency. I have tried adding the other protostream dependencies before and it didn't resolve the issue. Which other library is required for this ProtoSchema class?

[tristantarrant]

Well, I'm surprised it worked for you with 4 and not 5, because the layout of the jars has not changed

[tristantarrant]

as for the failure related to the annotation processor option, that's a bug. I'll fix it

[markosalazar]

Yes I am not understanding what the issue is either, with 4 its working great. Was hoping to switch to 5 for the proto3 support. Thanks for all the help. Will keep track to see if that bug is fixed.

[tristantarrant]

I'll try to set up a simple gradle build to see what's happening

[markosalazar]

Sure that sounds good, let me know if you require any info from my end

[tristantarrant]

Btw, the debug option is -Aprotostream.debug=true (dot instead of dash)

[markosalazar]

Thanks, that worked. Error is the same however:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/infinispan/protostream/annotations/ProtoSchema

Iv included the following dependency as well but no luck yet:
implementation 'org.infinispan.protostream:protostream:5.0.1.Final'

[markosalazar]

Not sure if this is helpful but version 5.0.0.Dev01 works, although it generates a schema using proto2 syntax

[tristantarrant]

This worked for me: https://github.com/tristantarrant/protostream-gradle

[markosalazar]

So, I downloaded your project and was able to run it, however the spring boot application I have is still throwing the same error. I have cross referenced both projects and see no real differences. Let me verify further and share what I find.

Also is the syntax supposed to still be proto2?

[tristantarrant]

For backwards compatibility. Use the following:

@ProtoSchema(schemaFileName = "simple.proto", includeClasses = Simple.class, syntax = ProtoSyntax.PROTO3)

[markosalazar]

Thanks a lot for all the feedback and the example project. It is very helpful. However, with the spring boot application, it is still throwing the same error. I have uploaded the project here. Can take a look if you ever get a chance and recreate the issue:
https://github.com/markosalazar/protostream-api-test-app

[markosalazar]

Hey Tristan, believe this issue is related to some type of conflict with Spring Boot/ maybe due to conflicting Jackson versions? Tried it on another application and its working as expected. Thanks again for all your prompt feedback

[tristantarrant]

I modified my project to add implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:3.2.4' but everything works. The only weird thing I see in your dependency tree is the downgrading of jackson: com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core:2.16.2 -> 2.15.4

Is there any more information from that exception java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/infinispan/protostream/annotations/ProtoSchema, such as the full stack trace with any additional causes ?
