I was trying to use MongoDB change stream. I was not able to do that because Spring Boot 1.5.10.RELEASE uses MongoDB driver version 3.4. When I upgrade the Mongo Driver version to 3.6.3 than I am able to use MongoDB change streams. <mongodb.version>3.6.2</mongodb.version> Change stream related classes are not available in Mongo Driver version 3.4. Bug report

        MongoClient mongoClient = context.getBean(MongoClient.class);
        KafkaSkuMessageProducer kafkaSkuMessageProducer = context.getBean(KafkaSkuMessageProducer.class);
        MongoDatabase database = mongoClient.getDatabase("test");

        MongoCollection<Document> myCollection = database.getCollection("mycollection");
        MongoCursor<ChangeStreamDocument<Document>> cursorIterator = myCollection.watch().fullDocument(FullDocument.UPDATE_LOOKUP).iterator();

The problem is that watch method is not there in older version 3.4 of MongoDB Java Driver.

Enhancement Solution is to upgrade the version number of MongoDB java driver. <mongodb.version>3.6.3</mongodb.version> or Update to any more current MongoDB Java Driver version.

@wilkinsona For Spring Boot 1.x. Will it be upgraded also?

Comment From: philwebb

@icewheel We only upgrade to patch releases, so only mongo 3.4.x will be considered.

Is Spring Boot 1.5.9.RELEASE will support mongo 3.6

Comment From: bclozel

@VenkatTM Spring Boot 1.5.x has been EOL for a few years now, please consider upgrading to a supported version.
