Re: [hibernate-dev] Hibernate Spatial - JTS update - compatibility issue
Hi Guillaume,
We can do this in a 5.4. As a commenter on this issue correctly noted,
geolatte-geom has already moved to 1.16.0-RC1, so the change in HS can
follow quickly. We should wait for the official 1.16 release though before
releasing it.
I'll put the ticket into progress, and upgrade the geolatte-geom dependency
so people can see the progress.
Best regards,
Karel

Hi list, Karel,
In https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-12144 , people are asking
about a JTS upgrade and at least one person seems to be willing to
contribute it.
The issue is that in newer JTS versions, they have changed the package
names so we would have a compatibility issue (see
https://github.com/locationtech/jts/blob/master/MIGRATION.md), which, if
I understand our spatial support correctly, would require hibernate-spatial
users to change their own code.
So the big question is: would that be acceptable to do in a potential 5.4
or should we wait for 6?
I'm not exactly sure of the type of compatibility guarantees we offer for
hibernate-spatial.
Karel, do you have plans for it?
Thanks,
