Add Support for Spring Boot 2.x.x about spring-cloud-services-connector

[royclarkson]

Thanks for reporting. This work is in progress. Spring Cloud Services depends on open source Spring Cloud, which transitively depends on Spring Boot. While Spring Boot 2.0 has indeed gone GA, the compatible release of Spring Cloud has not. Spring Cloud Finchley M7 is the latest release with Spring Boot 2.0 support. A Spring Boot 2.0 compatible version of Spring Cloud Services cannot be released until Spring Cloud Finchley is GA.

Thanks royclarkson,

Are there any plans or would it be possible to have a milestone or release candidate of these libraries that uses the latest milestone / release candidate of the Finchley series?
Then if there would be any issues, you could discover them before the final release as well! 😀

@Bwvolleyball we don't have any plans to provide a milestone release since the impact of Spring Boot 2.0 as it is expressed through Spring Cloud Finchley may also cause API interaction issues with existing SCS services. We are planning to make both the SCS tile and connectors available around the same time. Currently we are targeting mid to late April due to the Boot 2.0 impact on our existing SCS tile codebase.

Upgrading the project https://github.com/spring-cloud-services-samples/greeting/tree/master/greeter

for boot2 and spring-cloud-services-dependencies(2.0.0.M1) and Finchley.M9 i am getting the following error

[APP/PROC/WEB/0] [OUT] org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'requestMappingHandlerMapping' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/servlet/WebMvcAutoConfiguration$EnableWebMvcConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.ArrayStoreException: sun.reflect.annotation.TypeNotPresentExceptionProxy

@shangal Did you remove the 1.4.2.RELEASE version from this line https://github.com/spring-cloud-services-samples/greeting/blob/master/greeter/build.gradle#L32?

There shouldn't be any version there - Boot should manage the version of that dependency.

If that doesn't fix the problem, please create an issue in the greeting repo instead of adding to this closed issue.

i was using the pom and i updated the versions to 2.0.0 - but thanks for the reply - i will go ahead and open the issue against the greeter project!
