Missing dependency 'class javax.annotation.Nullable'

java, jira-rest-java-api, sbt, scala

Solution

I found the answer in this issue on googlecode: http://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/issues/detail?id=1095. To correct the problem in sbt you need to add this dependency:

"com.google.code.findbugs" % "jsr305" % "1.3.+"

Problem

I was trying to use the jira-rest-java-client provided by Atlassian in a Scala program I am developing. I am using Eclipse as my IDE. When I have an object of type Issue and I try to look at the properties I see there are far fewer properties than are declared in the Java code. I thought perhaps this was just Eclipse not finding all properties/methods of an object so I tried putting Issue.getSummary() and doing an sbt compile. The compile showed me this error: Missing dependency 'class javax.annotation.Nullable' Any ideas?
