Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-866:
----------------------------------------------

It looks like we cannot just fork the damn thing and re-licence it under ASLv2. We either have to remove it entirely or provide our own set of equivalent annotations with SOURCE retention policy

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-866
>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 4.0 Final
>         Environment: javac 1.5.0_19
>            Reporter: David Nault
>            Priority: Critical
>
> When using Java 5 to compile code that uses HttpClient, jcip-annotations.jar must be in the classpath or else you get a compiler error:
>     [javac] /path/to/src/SomeFile.java:129: cannot access net.jcip.annotations.GuardedBy
>     [javac] file net/jcip/annotations/GuardedBy.class not found
>     [javac]         DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
>     [javac]                                        ^
> With Java 6, you get a bunch of warnings instead.
>     [javac] org/apache/http/impl/client/AbstractHttpClient.class(org/apache/http/impl/client:AbstractHttpClient.class): warning: Cannot find annotation method 'value()' in type 'net.jcip.annotations.GuardedBy': class file for net.jcip.annotations.GuardedBy not found
> This requirement doesn't seem to be documented anywhere, and jcip-annotations.jar is not included in the "httpcomponents-client-4.0-bin-with-dependencies" package.
