Animal Sniffer Signatures

What

This repository provides signatures (as Maven artifacts) for the Animal Sniffer Maven Plugin.

Currently, the following signatures are provided:

• Java 1.7

  <signature>
      <groupId>com.kohlschutter.animalsniffer</groupId>
      <artifactId>signatures-java-7</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0</version>
  </signature>
  

  (Currently including classes from rt.jar, jsse.jar, jce.jar, alt-rt.jar)

How

See Checking a project against API signatures from the Animal Sniffer Maven Plugin website.

Building the signatures from scratch most likely requires setting -Djava7.home=/path/to/java7home with Maven.

Why

I'm using retrolambda to convert Java 8 bytecode to run under Java 7. Since my code may inadvertently use API introduced in Java 1.8, running something like Animal Sniffer becomes mandatory.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find any other signatures for Java 1.7, so here we are.
