I am trying to build Spring Boot main against a local change in Spring Framework main. This leads to the following exception:
$ ./gradlew build --include-build ../../spring-framework/main

This needs to be addressed in Spring Framework's build. The problem is that the version constraints in Framework's build are configured in such a way that they're not visible to the including build. That could be related to the dependency management plugin and some limitations in Gradle. Ideally, Framework wouldn't use the dependency management plugin any more as Gradle's built-in capabilities (which we use in Boot's build) are more than adequate now.

Thanks Andy, I am moving this to the framework issue tracker.

If the team are interested, I would be happy to contribute the necessary changes to move from the dependency management plugin to Gradle's built-in platform support.

Yes please, thanks for the offer!

It still doesn't seem to work with the same failure in the opening comment.
Comment From: snicoll
@izeye thanks for the feedback. I am unable to reproduce the problem. Can you share the command you're using?

I thought I had tested this and it worked, but I can reproduce it:
./gradlew build --include-build ../../spring-framework
> Task :buildSrc:compileJava

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 8.0.
You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.
See https://docs.gradle.org/7.5.1/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings

I'd hoped that moving away from the dependency management plugin would be enough to fix this, but it appears that's not the case. I think we'll have to chat with the Gradle team as I can't see why this wouldn't work now.
Comment From: snicoll
I still can't reproduce it @wilkinsona so perhaps something you and I can look at?
Comment From: wilkinsona
Stephane and I have reproduced this. The problem's specific to depending on a Spring Framework module that has a transitive dependency that isn't part of the including build. Spring Boot doesn't depend on QDox so its dependency on spring-core-test doesn't work. A similar failure can be seen with spring-webflux if the including build doesn't depend on Reactor. I am going to reach out to the Gradle team for some guidance.
