Failed to find an injectable constructor for com.google.errorprone.bugpatterns.AlwaysThrows requested by AlwaysThrows

[Anthony Goubard]

Hi,

 I'm trying to use error prone but get this weird error. Any idea?

 Here is my build target (Apache Ant):

  <target name="error-prone" depends="init, clean">
    <echo message="Ant version ${ant.version} ${ant.home}" />
    <path id="processorpath.ref">
      <pathelement location="C:\Java\Utils\pmd\lib\error_prone_core-2.22.0-with-dependencies.jar"/>
      <pathelement location="C:\Java\Utils\pmd\lib\dataflow-errorprone-3.39.0.jar"/>
    </path>

    <javac srcdir="src" destdir="classes" fork="yes" includeantruntime="no">
      <compilerarg value="-XDcompilePolicy=simple"/>
      <compilerarg value="-processorpath"/>
      <compilerarg pathref="processorpath.ref"/>
      <compilerarg value="-Xplugin:ErrorProne -Xep:DeadException:ERROR" />
      <compilerarg value="-J--add-exports=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.api=ALL-UNNAMED" />
      <compilerarg value="-J--add-exports=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.file=ALL-UNNAMED" />
      <compilerarg value="-J--add-exports=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.main=ALL-UNNAMED" />

      <compilerarg value="-J--add-opens=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.code=ALL-UNNAMED" />
      <compilerarg value="-J--add-opens=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.comp=ALL-UNNAMED" />
      <classpath>
        <fileset dir="${template.dir}" includes="${template.lib} lib/JapplisAppFramework.jar" />
        <fileset dir="." includes="${compile.lib}" if:set="compile.lib.yes" />
      </classpath>
    </javac>
  </target>

Hello, I think you encountered the same issue discussed here: https://github.com/google/error-prone/issues/3897

Adding this jar to the classpaths should fix the error: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/javax/inject/javax.inject/1/javax.inject-1.jar

I'll look at getting that jar included in the next release of the '-with-dependencies.jar' jar, so it will work without adding the additional dependency.

Hello,

 Thank you. Indeed adding javax.inject-1.jar fixed the problem.

 Depending on how often you create new releases, you might consider updating the documentation: https://errorprone.info/docs/installation
