Is this a bug on the spotbugs side or is there a problem with the findsecbugs-plugin? Thanks

ottlinger avatar Oct 07 '25 21:10 ottlinger

ok thanks for reporting. That escaped groovy compilation, I'll have to spin a new release and set back Path.of to Path.get instead throughout multiple spots after looking. Will try to get a new release cut in next week.

@hazendaz the new release did not improve the situation but seems to have introduced a new bug as the build fails with:

@ottlinger you are mixing 2 different release issues. I didn't respin 4.8.x line.

The issue you found in 4.9.x is valid, I'm releasing a patch now.

Issue in 4.9.x came from https://github.com/spotbugs/spotbugs-maven-plugin/commit/425299d446e45bd4d232571ccb36883d84b458e8. Fix will be in 4.9.8.1.

The backport to support java 8 users is pretty complicated and won't likely be addressed for a while unless others champion PRs to back port java 8 based code as groovy provides no ability to ensure binary compatibility and we moved on quite some time ago. However, when it comes to maven usage, there is no practical reason anyone is using anything less than java 21 to compile their code bases. The need in other words doesn't actually exist and the only reason that was cut was to satisfy someones whim they could not use newer jdk versions rather than any tangible release from me as I don't support anything but the latest regardless. So either someone comes along and fixes it up, someone figures out how to make groovy adhere to byte code (very unlikely), or I find time, its not going to occur in short order. In your case, I think you appear fine to move on to 4.9.x at this time and found a valid bug. Look for that bug patch in next hour or so.
