Update Spotless to 8.9.0 by AlexeyKuznetsov-DD · Pull Request #12208 · DataDog/dd-trace-java

AlexeyKuznetsov-DD · 2026-08-13T20:03:37Z

What Does This Do

Updates Spotless to 8.9.0 and centralizes its plugin version in the version catalog. GrEclipse remains pinned to 4.27 because of diffplug/spotless#3013.

Motivation

Keep formatter tooling current and use the version catalog consistently.

Additional Notes

Validated with ./gradlew spotlessCheck and the standalone test-published-dependencies Spotless check.

More details

The centralized Spotless alias resolves from an explicitly imported version catalog in every affected build, and GrEclipse 4.27 remains pinned in both the root predeclaration and shared formatter configuration, preserving the existing formatter dependency contract.

Investigate the failures and when ready, re-add your pull request to the queue!
If your PR checks are green, try to rebase/merge. It might be because the CI run is a bit old.
Any question, go check the FAQ.

Since those jobs are not marked as being allowed to fail, the pipeline will most likely fail.
Therefore, and to allow other builds to be processed, this merge request has been rejected and the pipeline got canceled.
