Gradle plugin is using a deprecated feature to be removed in Gradle 6.0 about spotbugs-gradle-plugin

[ati90ati]

NOTE: in the plugin version 1.6.9 it did not appear, but unfortunately in the 1.6.10 / 1.6.11 / 1.7.0 yes.

I've created a sample project:
https://github.com/ati90ati/bugreport-spotbugs-gradle-plugin-logging

[KengoTODA]

note: an alternative constructor has been added at v5.1.0. So to solve this issue, we need to bump up supported Gradle version to 5.1 from 5.0 (introduced by #100).

[ati90ati]

Hey, this cannot be fixed earlier than the 2.0.0 version?

[KengoTODA]

Yes. I think major version up is the best timing to break backward compatibility.

What is your concern? Is Gradle v6 coming soon?

[ati90ati]

Gradle 6 is not yet here.
I try to avoid to have warnings and to use deprecated code.

2.0.0 is ok for me, however 1.7.0 sounds much better.
Do you have an idea when you will succeed to release 2.0.0?

Problem 2:
Also in the version 1.6.10 in an application with Spring Boot I get these errors:

Task :spotbugsMain
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.
The following classes needed for analysis were missing:
call
get
makeConcatWithConstants
apply
accept
test

I also use the findsecbugs plugin:

dependencies {
    spotbugs configurations.spotbugsPlugins.dependencies
    spotbugsPlugins "com.h3xstream.findsecbugs:findsecbugs-plugin:1.8.0"
}
