-------------------------------------
Summary: Lucene Demo module should not ship with servlet-api.jar
file
Key: LUCENE-4430
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4430
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 4.0-BETA
Reporter: Uwe Schindler
Assignee: Uwe Schindler
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 4.1, 5.0, 4.0
As noted in SOLR-3879, Mike's new check in the smoketester found out that
Lucene's binary release ships with a servlet-api.jar file in the Lucene demo
module. This file is an interface-only file and is provided by the servlet
container where you would run the webapp.
This file should be removed from the binary release (the License is also
questionable, because the "original" Sun License of servlet-api.jar was CDDL,
although thats unimportant because it is an API definition file and not a
implementation with actual program code. Shipping any binary code with
servlet-api.jar is as wrong as shipping a Java project with JDK's rt.jar
bundled).
In general we should (in another issue) restructure our lib folders and
differentiate (using IVY configs) between compile-time dependencies and
run-time dependencies. Servlet-api.jar is a typical example for a
pure-compile-time dep.
