DEPRECATED Guice 7 introduced native jakarta support.
Google guice does not support jakarta namespace yet.
This project is not a fork. It just converts guice automatically using tomcat migration tool and re-publish converted jars into maven central (with different group).
- Source jars loaded from maven central and converted automatically
- Project compiles converted sources producing all required artifacts for maven central
- POM files are manually re-worked (to contain correct jakarta dependencies)
- MANIFEST re-applied (to keep OSGI exports)
Migrated apis:
- jakarta.inject (all modules)
- jakarta.servlet (guice-servlet)
- jakarta.persistence (guice-persist)
Migration project was created for dropwizard-guicey to make it compatible with dropwizard 4.
Migration from javax.inject means that your code should not use javax.inject.Inject and other annotations.
All such places must be changed either to jakarta jakarta.inject.Inject or to
google com.google.inject.Inject (same for Singleton, Provider, etc.)
Guice will simply ignore old annotations! As a result, if you use some 3rd party library,
it must also not use javax.inject classes or guice might work incorrectly.
For gradle, there is a special plugin which could convert dependencies automatically (assuming you building application and bundle all dependencies in it).
The simplest migration startegy for 3rd party guice libraries is to avoid javax.inject annotations and use
native guice com.google.inject annotations instead. This way library would be compatible with both javax and jakarta
namespaces.
No need to depend libraries on this re-packaged guice version - simply avoid javax usage.
Currently published 5.1.0-rc.2 in order to gather feedback and finally release 5.1.0 without issues (in order to strictly follow guice version). Where problems could be: wrong dependencies in POM, incorrect METADATA (for OSGI)
Notable differences with original guice:
- ASM not bundled inside guice jar, asm updated to 9.5
- Guava updated to 31.1
Gradle:
dependencies {
implementation platform('ru.vyarus.guice.jakarta:guice-bom:5.1.0-rc.2')
implementation 'ru.vyarus.guice.jakarta:guice'
implementation 'ru.vyarus.guice.jakarta:guice-servlet'

NOTE: spring and struct2 modules are missed (anyone need them?)
