Summary: Upgrade to ASM 5 for Java 8 support
Key: ARIES-1186
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-1186
Project: Aries
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Proxy
Affects Versions: proxy-impl-1.0.2
Reporter: Harald Wellmann
Priority: Critical
Aries Proxy does not work under Java 8, since it depends on ASM 4 which does
not support Java 8.
This is currently a blocker for working with Karaf 3.0.1 under Java 8. (Karaf
contains Aries Proxy Impl 1.0.2).
Upgrading to ASM 5.0.2 requires changing a few {{super()}} calls in Aries
subclasses of ASM classes.
I tried a local build of Aries Proxy Impl 1.0.3-SNAPSHOT with these changes,
and the result seems to be ok for Karaf.
The larger part of the issue on Aries side is the dependency on a prehistoric
version of Pax Exam which depends on Pax Runner (with additional configuration
tweaks from Aries) which does not support Java 8 either, so I haven't been able
to run the Proxy integration tests.
