JanusGraph
Concerning warnings about missing classes when using JanusGraph 1.0.0 with CQL in embedded mode
Discussed in https://github.com/JanusGraph/janusgraph/discussions/4349
Originally posted by pete-gillin-privitar March 27, 2024 We are using JanusGraph in embedded mode with the CQL backend. On upgrading to JanusGraph 1.0.0, we are getting some concerning warnings about missing classes when we do our first traversal. I am not sure whether I should be worried about these, or what combination of maven dependencies (and possibly exclusions?) I need to get rid of them.
I can reproduce this by doing anything which causes the class JanusGraphTraverserUtil to be loaded, in a maven project with org.janusgraph:janusgraph-core and org.janusgraph:janusgraph-cql as dependencies. I am providing the full text of the warnings and a minimal standalone reproduction below, but I'll summarize quickly here.
We have a dependency on janusgraph-cql but not on janusgraph-hadoop. That means that we have org.janusgraph.hadoop.scan.CQLHadoopScanRunner on the classpath, but not org.janusgraph.hadoop.scan.AbstractHadoopScanRunner which CQLHadoopScanRunner extends. That means that we'll never be able to load the class CQLHadoopScanRunner. That doesn't seem to matter in itself, since (in our testing so far) we have not hit a code path which actually uses that class. However, the first time we do a traversal, the static initializer of org.janusgraph.graphdb.util.JanusGraphTraverserUtil uses the Reflections utility to scan every class under org.janusgraph, and that tries to expand the supertypes, and that logs a warning could not get type for name org.janusgraph.hadoop.scan.AbstractHadoopScanRunner from any class loader.
We get a similar story for a few other classes (see the below). As well as several from janusgraph-hadoop, this includes one in org.apache.hadoop:hadoop-mapreduce-client-core, and one in org.apache.tinkerpop:gremlin-server.
The upgrade instructions contain this note, which seems potentially relevant:
If you are running embedded JanusGraph with Cassandra, you have to exclude the
cassandra-hadoop-utilfromjanusgraph-cql
However, that makes no difference that I can tell. In my reproduction below, I put
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.janusgraph</groupId>
<artifactId>cassandra-hadoop-util</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
in the janusgraph-cql dependency in my pom.xml and nothing changed. I assume that this is because the classes like CQLHadoopScanRunner are in janusgraph-cql, not in cassandra-hadoop-util.
In my toy reproduction, I can make these warnings go away by adding dependencies on janusgraph-hadoop and gremlin-server. In my real application, adding janusgraph-hadoop causes a different problem (to do with Spring initialization). I can try to debug that if adding this dependency is the correct thing to do, but I'd like confirmation that this really is the correct approach. We're not using Hadoop to the best of my knowledge, so being forced to add the janusgraph-hadoop dependency would feel like an odd thing to do.
Alternatively, we could ignore the warnings, or we could even repackage the janusgraph-cql JAR to exclude the classes with missing superclasses. But I'd like confirmation that this is going to be safe — I don't know whether they'd be used on some code path that we just haven't happened to hit in our testing so far. (Repackaging the JAR would also seem like an odd thing to do.)
Any advice on how to proceed would be very welcome! Thanks.

Standalone reproduction:
In src/main/java/com/example/Repro.java I have:
package com.example;
import org.janusgraph.graphdb.util.JanusGraphTraverserUtil;
public class Repro {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Construct a new JanusGraphTraverserUtil to trigger its static initializer block.
// Obviously we would never do this in real life — but the static initializer will be triggered in normal usage.
// This is the simplest way to reproduce.
JanusGraphTraverserUtil unused = new JanusGraphTraverserUtil();
}
}
In pom.xml I have:

And then I do mvn clean compile exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.example.Repro to get the output shown above.
I am also facing similar warnings with Hbase. Although i have verified that they do not cause issues in actual working of the code but still feels like this might be an issue.
