How to use Spring Integration 5 with Spring Boot 1

Question

I'm trying to setup a project that uses Spring Boot 1.5.10 and Spring Integration.

It seems that Spring Boot 1.5.x uses the old version of Spring Integration, which is 4.3.14.

The project also requires spring-integration-kafka which is based on Spring Integration 5.0.1.

So, I'm ending up in a bit of dependencies hell. Is there a way for Spring Boot 1.5.x to use the latest Spring Integration?

Answer 1

I have Spring Boot 1.5.9 and I upgraded to Spring Integration IP 5.0.2. I'm guessing this is why my send/receive messaging is now broken:

Exception in thread "pool-4-thread-2" java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.springframework.integration.ip.tcp.connection.TcpMessageMapper.toMessage(Ljava/lang/Object;)Lorg/springframework/messaging/Message;

I'll just wait until 2.0.0 then...
