java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/day/cq/personalization/UserPropertiesUtil in AEM 6.3

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the reply. I have added the dependency as given, but I am not able to build my bundle with "uber-jar-6.3.0-obfuscated-apis.jar". Getting below exception. I am using JDK version 1.8

Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.PluginContainerException: An API incompatibility was encountered while executing org.apache.felix:maven-scr-plugin:1.7.4:scr: java.lang.VerifyError: Constructor must call super() or this() before return

Exception Details:

  Location:

    com/adobe/cq/sightly/WCMUsePojo.<init>()V @1: return

  Reason:

    Error exists in the bytecode

  Bytecode:

    0x0000000: 2ab1         

Earlier I was using below given maven dependency,

<dependency>

               <groupId>com.adobe.aem</groupId>

               <artifactId>uber-jar</artifactId>

               <version>6.3.0</version>

                <classifier>apis</classifier>

               <scope>provided</scope>

           </dependency>

and I was able to build the bundle, but getting "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:com/day/cq/personalization/UserPropertiesUtil"

I tested and this works and does not throw an error:

Then in the Sling Model class - you can test this class with this code:

import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;

import com.day.cq.personalization.UserPropertiesUtil;

import javax.inject.Inject;

import javax.inject.Named;

import org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource;

import org.apache.sling.models.annotations.Default;

import org.apache.sling.models.annotations.Model;

import org.apache.sling.settings.SlingSettingsService;

@Model(adaptables=Resource.class)

public class HelloWorldModel {

    @Inject

    private SlingSettingsService settings;

    @Inject @Named("sling:resourceType") @Default(values="No resourceType")

    protected String resourceType;

    private String message;

    @PostConstruct

    protected void init() {

    UserPropertiesUtil pi = new UserPropertiesUtil();

        message = "\tHello World!\n";

        message += "\tThis is instance: " + settings.getSlingId() + "\n";

        message += "\tClass is " + pi.getClass() + "\n";

    }

    public String getMessage() {

        return message;

    }

}

This should be part of the AEM Uber JAR - when using the Uber JAR - you only put the UBER dependency.

<dependency>

               <groupId>com.adobe.aem</groupId>

               <artifactId>uber-jar</artifactId>

               <version>6.3.0</version>

                <classifier>obfuscated-apis</classifier>

               <scope>provided</scope>

           </dependency>

Personalization is different in AEM 6.3 then 6.1.

In AEM 6.3 - you can use ContextHUb or AEM and Adobe Target. See these links:
