Cascade Build Fails - Missing Dependency

Gradle build fails with 'cannot find symbol' errors or 'unresolved dependency' when Cascade generated code that uses libraries not in your classpath. The generated code imports classes that don't exist in your project.

Cascade suggests library usage without automatically updating build configuration.

Error Messages You Might See

error: cannot find symbol: class ObjectMapper error: unresolved reference: com.fasterxml.jackson build.gradle.kts: Could not resolve dependency
error: cannot find symbol: class ObjectMappererror: unresolved reference: com.fasterxml.jacksonbuild.gradle.kts: Could not resolve dependency

Common Causes

  1. Cascade generated code using library (e.g., Jooq, Testcontainers) not in build.gradle.kts
  2. Cascade imported classes from optional/transitive dependencies not explicitly declared
  3. Version mismatch: Cascade used API from newer library version than currently declared
  4. Cascade suggested removing dependency that other code still depends on

How to Fix It

Review Cascade-generated imports to identify missing libraries. Add dependencies to build.gradle.kts with appropriate versions. Ensure version alignment with existing dependencies. Run './gradlew compileKotlin' to verify build. Consider dependency management tools to detect conflicts.
