I am aware that this is a substantial API change, and is definately not a
change that is realistic to make on a short time scale, but it seems like
something that would be valuable longer term.
A relatively safe approach would be copying the requisite portions to
gs-platform and deprecating the gs-main version for 2.10, and actually
removing the gs-main version in 2.11.
What if you extend IOUtils in main extend the one in platform, adding just
the extra methods? As far as I remember static class methods
can be called using a subclass reference... yep, the following compiles and
works:
public class TestInheritStatic {
public static class Base {
public static void hello() { System.out.println("hello");}
}
public static class Derived extends Base {
}
public static void main(String args) {
Derived.hello();
}
}
If you deprecate the one in main please remove all references to it in the
geoserver code base, to avoid
creating tech debt in the process.
