Issues using Picocli as source file directly in project

I tried to copy Picocli directly in my project (for testing of a modification) but I had to include more than the CommandLine.java file :

• The CommandLine makes references to AutoComplete in comments like {@link AutoComplete} which produces errors on my IDE and CI.
• Picocli breaks rules on my Gradle build checks like the use of raw types [rawtypes] found raw type or redundant casts [cast] redundant cast to T and warnings are treated as errors in our checks…
• I have a strange

error: cannot find symbol
                        ? Range.valueOf("" + ((MethodParam) member.accessible).position)
                                               ^
  symbol:   class MethodParam
  location: class Range

• My coding conventions are set to Google code style, and it reformats the code of the Picocli in a way that I can’t even think of merging my modifications back to Picocli original project.
• we have to create a picocli package or change packages in CommandLine file -> changing all imports.

So I did my modifications in the Picocli project (my clone) and built the JAR to include in my other project. I then asked myself, why as Picocli is intended to be used directly as a single source file ? What have I missed ? Thanks.

I believe I also fixed this error you reported. MethodParam is now a package protected inner class of Model instead of a private inner class of Model.

error: cannot find symbol
                        ? Range.valueOf("" + ((MethodParam) member.accessible).position)
                                               ^

I removed the {@link AutoComplete} from the javadoc, and fixed compile warnings “use of raw types [rawtypes] found” and “[cast] redundant cast to T” in master.
