[BUG] Required dependency missing: org.json:json

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

SDK Version

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.optimizely.ab</groupId>
  <artifactId>core-api</artifactId>
  <version>4.1.1</version>
</dependency>

Current Behavior

Using JsonConfigParser leads to runtime exception, because it requires org.json.JsonObject from org.json:json which is not provided as an implementation dependency.

JsonConfigParser https://github.com/optimizely/java-sdk/blob/master/core-api/src/main/java/com/optimizely/ab/config/parser/JsonConfigParser.java

Dependency excluded here: https://github.com/optimizely/java-sdk/blob/master/core-api/build.gradle#L11

Expected Behavior

Users of your library should be able to use JsonConfigParser without knowing about its internal dependencies.

Steps To Reproduce

Create a Project with
pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

            <version>4.1.1</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</project>

        JsonConfigParser parser = new JsonConfigParser();
        try {
            parser.parseProjectConfig("{}");
        } catch (ConfigParseException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();

Workaround/Solution

Solution
Change https://github.com/optimizely/java-sdk/blob/master/core-api/build.gradle#L11
from compileOnly to implementation

Alternatively, do not expose JsonConfigParser to consumers of your library.

Beginne bei core-api/build.gradle Zeile 11 und prüfe, wie die org.json-Abhängigkeit für JsonConfigParser deklariert ist. Führe die gemeldete Maven-Reproduktion mit core-api Version 4.1.1 aus und verifiziere anschließend, dass Verbraucher JsonConfigParser ausführen können, ohne selbst org.json zu deklarieren.
