Rework classloading for launched applications so that CLI classes and
dependencies are not visible. This change allows many of the previous
hacks and workarounds to be removed.
With the exception of the 'org.springframework.boot.groovy' package
and 'groovy-all' all user required depndencies are now pulled in
via @Grab annotations.
The updated classloading algorithm has enabled the following changes:
- AetherGrapeEngine is now back in the cli project and the
spring-boot-cli-grape project has been removed. The AetherGrapeEngine
has also been simplified.
- The TestCommand now launches a TestRunner (similar in design to the
SpringApplicationRunner) and report test failures directly using
the junit TextListener. Adding custom 'testers' source to the users
project is no longer required. The previous 'double compile' for
tests has also been removed.
- Utility classes have been removed in favor of using versions from
spring-core.
- The CLI jar is now packaged using the 'boot-loader' rather than using
the maven shade plugin.
This commit also applied minor polish refactoring to a number of
classes.
Prior to this commit, the Aether-based GrapeEngine was loaded in the
same class loader as the rest of Boot. This led to Aether's and its
dependencies' types polluting the application's class path. Most
notably, this caused problems with logging as the logging framework
could be permaturely initialized.
This commit isolates AetherGrapeEngine, Aether and its dependencies
into a separate class loader. This is done by customizing the
packaging of the CLI's jar file with the internal directory housing
all of the types that will be loaded by the separate class loader.
