http-client throws NoSuchMethodError 'boolean com.fasterxml.jackson.core.io.NumberInput.looksLikeValidNumber(java.lang.String)'

[nedelva]

Expected Behavior

I tried to upgrade the platform from 4.3.8 to 4.4.0. When doing so, a few tests using Jackson serialization threw the NoSuchMethodError error.
Looking at the micronaut-core-bom-4.4.3.pom I noticed that Jackson Databind and Jackson Core have different versions:

<jackson.databind.version>2.17.0</jackson.databind.version>
<jackson.version>2.16.1</jackson.version>

Since Databind depends on Core, their versions usually go hand in hand. Any particular reason why this happened?

Actual Behaviour

Here's the stacktrace:

I am hoping this will go away once this pull request gets merged: #10749

[sdelamo]

@nedelva thanks for reporting. I created this PR #10795

[ethanhere]

#10795 is to use 1 jackson version in micronaut 5. What about micronaut 4? With micronaut-platform 4.4.1, jackson-databind still uses different version than other jackson dependencies. Would that be fixed with micronaut-platform 4.5.x?

[sdelamo]

#10795 is to use 1 jackson version in micronaut 5.

@ethanhere No. that it is not so. That PR will make sure we will use 2.17.0 everywhere. We will release that in Micronaut Core 4.4.9 which will be released in Micronaut Platform 4.4.3.

[ethanhere]

any idea when Micronaut Platform 4.4.3. would come out?

[sdelamo]

we are releasing Micronaut Platform 4.4.2 today. Typically, 7 - 10 days after we will release the next patch.

A workaround is to force the Jackson Databind version to 2.17.0.

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {
        force "group:artififactid:version"
    }
}

Or you can force core to 4.4.9 once we release it.
