Issue Summary
If a plugin class constructs a breadcrumb object which extends AbstractActionBreadcrumb in Confluence 7.x, the compiled plugin will fail to load on Confluence 8.x due to incompatible bytecode.
Steps to Reproduce
- Add a code snippet similar to the following to your plugin's XWork Action class
public Breadcrumb getBreadcrumb() { return new UserProfileActionBreadcrumb(this); }
- Compile plugin against Confluence 7.x
- Load plugin on Confluence 8.x
Expected Results
Plugin loads and functions as expected with no errors in logs
Actual Results
If wildcard package resolution is enabled you will receive an OSGi error similar to the following:
Caused by: org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to resolve com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.confluence-notifications-spi-plugin [305](R 305.0): missing requirement [com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.confluence-notifications-spi-plugin [305](R 305.0)] osgi.wiring.package; (osgi.wiring.package=com.opensymphony.xwork) Unresolved requirements: [[com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.confluence-notifications-spi-plugin [305](R 305.0)] osgi.wiring.package; (osgi.wiring.package=com.opensymphony.xwork)]
Otherwise you will receive the following class load error:

[CONFSERVER-80587] Plugins compiled against Confluence 7.x that use AbstractActionBreadcrumb constructors are incompatible with Confluence 8.x
A fix for this issue is available in Confluence Server and Data Center 8.0.0.
Upgrade now or check out the Release Notes to see what other issues are resolved.
We face the same issue with
But this happens when the plugin is compiled against Confluence 8, but is deployed to Confluence 7...
Compiling the same source code against Confluence 7 will make the OBR that works on Confluence 7 and Confluence 8
