v5.0.0

Version Number

5.0.0-431

New Features

• US361030: Plugin versions updated
  The Maven plugins have been updated to their latest versions.

Breaking Changes

• Java version update
  Java 17 is now the default target. This can be overridden by setting the
  maven.compiler.release property.

• Java EE banned
  The Java EE artifacts have been added to the list of banned dependencies.
  It has been many years since the move to Jakarta EE so this is being added to
  the banned list to prevent any accidental reintroduction.

• Enforce correct dependencies
  The enforceCorrectDependencies flag has been enabled by default.

• Enforce compatible dependencies
  Conflicts between dependencies will now cause the build to fail. These can be
  ignored by setting the enforceCompatibleDependencies flag to false.

• License header configuration changes
  There have been a number of changes to the default license headers configuration.
  The new <licenseSets> option is being used for configuration so any overrides
  will also have to be similarly updated.

• Banned inapplicable test artifacts
  The hamcrest-all and mockito-all artifacts have been banned since they are
  not meant to be used with dependency management systems like Maven.

Known Issues

• None
