hello! 👋
Is there are preferred visibility modifier for creating auto configuration libs? My co-worker insists on making those internal which seems wrong to me….

[wakingrufus]

are you talking about the visibility of the Autoconfiguration classes?

[wakingrufus]

i would say public, b/c downstreams may want to @ImportAutoconfiguration on their Spring tests

[Dariusz Kuc]

thats my reasoning as well

[Dariusz Kuc]

*or for specifying custom order using depends on/configure after etc

[kqr]

then I would say it's not preferrence but necessity 🙂
