use of spotbugs from a buildSrc file

[donwalling]

Hi,
I'm trying to update a project from spotbugs 5.2.5 to 6.0.7. It uses spotbugs from a buildSrc file. The 6.0.7 file (greatly simplified) looks like
`
import com.github.spotbugs.snom.Effort

plugins {
id 'com.diffplug.spotless'
}

spotbugs {
effort = Effort.MAX
}
`

At compile time I'm getting an error
script '/Users/donwalling/work/samplelib/buildSrc/src/main/groovy/java-conventions.gradle': 1: unable to resolve class com.github.spotbugs.snom.Effort @ line 1, column 1. import com.github.spotbugs.snom.Effort
It's not clear to me how to import the Effort class so that I can use the enum. In 5.2.5 the effort was a string, so the value "max" worked fine.

What am I overlooking?
Thanks,
Don

Look over on the gradle plugin. This one was answered as well as noted in upgrade notes for 5 to 6 migration. If you could post link back here and let us know once you are good to go so others can benefit. Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>

sorry, i meant to ask the question over there. I'll close this and re-ask. The syntax I'm trying works fine from the top-level build.gradle, but not from a .gradle file under buildSrc, so there's something subtle (to me) that I'm overlooking
