Arturo Bernal commented on JSPWIKI-204:
---------------------------------------
Thanks Jürgen for the pointers. In master the only use of xmlrpc-2.0.1 was
PingWeblogsComFilter; the jspwiki-xmlrpc module has no pom and is not built.
Pull request https://github.com/apache/jspwiki/pull/567 removes the library:
the filter sends its weblogUpdates.ping call with the HTTP client of the JDK,
and the war no longer contains any xmlrpc jar. A new test runs the filter
against a local HTTP server. The ping to rpc.weblogs.com itself was not tried,
and the full jspwiki-main suite was not run.
This removes the dependency instead of upgrading it to XML-RPC 3.1, which would
need three jars for that one call. I leave the issue open for review.
> Consider upgrading xmlrpc.jar to a more recent version

> I couldn't find this issue in the database, and didn't want to see it get
> lost.
> I've been having trouble with the Transclude plugin in JSPWiki 2.6.x, and the
> analysis to date suggests that the problem is that XML-RPC is using an
> outdated and incomplete XML parser.
> The conversation in jspwiki-user ended more or less with this:
> >> We are using an older version of Apache XML-RPC and the current
> >> version (3.1) doesn't use MinML. We haven't upgraded because of
> >> time constraints and not wanting to break something that isn't
> >> broken. This does sound a bit broken though.
> > Yup, it sounds like a very good reason for an upgrade. Could someone
> > please open up a task in the JIRA tracker?
