---------------------------------------
Summary: Undeprecate DirectoryScanner and MatchPattern(s)
Key: MSHARED-989
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-989
Project: Maven Shared Components
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: maven-shared-utils
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
In MSHARED-898 {{DirectoryScanner}} has been deprecated. Instead using the
{{java.nio.file.DirectoryStream}} is now recommended.
The latter is often no replacement as the parametrization of DirectoryScanner
with Ant-style globs for includes/excludes is not supported. Also the
{{DEFAULTEXCLUDES}} are not part of Java NIO {{DirectoryStream}} either.
The same applies to {{MatchPatterns}}, which is deprecated and now recommends
using {{java.nio.filejava.nio.file.DirectoryStream.Filter<T>}}. Please instead
provide a Filter for Java NIO for those patterns (regex and ant) and make
{{DirectoryScanner}} use File NIO internally while keeping API compatibility.
Otherwise every consumer of DirectoryScanner needs to come up with a custom
implementation of pattern matching and a lot of glue code.
