org.gradle.util.VersionNumber is being deprecated

[enaess]

I am getting deprecated warnings for classes scheduled to be removed in Gradle 9.0

The org.gradle.util.VersionNumber type has been deprecated. This is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 9.0. Consult the upgrading guide for further information: https://docs.gradle.org/8.5/userguide/upgrading_version_8.html#org_gradle_util_reports_deprecations
	at org.gradle.util.VersionNumber.logDeprecation(VersionNumber.java:37)
	at org.gradle.util.VersionNumber.compareTo(VersionNumber.java:112)
	at com.google.gradle.osdetector.OsDetector.compareGradleVersion(OsDetector.java:96)

	at com.google.gradle.osdetector.OsDetector.getClassifier(OsDetector.java:63)
	at com.google.gradle.osdetector.OsDetector_Decorated.getClassifier(Unknown Source)

Also, there doesn't seem to be a recommended replacement for this API, maybe find a semver package or write one yourselves?

Did you try upgrading? VersionNumber was removed from the plugin in 1.7.1.

I'll have another look with the latest version. And I am probably wrong here as I must have eye-balled the wrong import mistaking it for VersionNumber:

osdetector-gradle-plugin/src/main/java/com/google/gradle/osdetector/OsDetector.java

Line 31 in d152535

import org.gradle.util.GradleVersion;

Did the upgrade and the warning went away, closing the issue.
