Hello Everyone, I would like to propose deleting the following libraries from build.gradle
runtime 'apache-xerces:resolver:2.9.1' runtime 'commons-el:commons-el:1.0' runtime 'net.sf.dozer:dozer:4.2.1' runtime 'org.apache.axis2:axis2-adb:1.7.1' runtime 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.1' runtime 'org.apache.servicemix.bundles:org.apache.servicemix.bundles.xpp3:1.1.4c_7' runtime 'org.apache.tomcat.extras:tomcat-extras-juli-adapters:8.0.39' runtime 'org.apache.xalan:com.springsource.org.apache.xml.serializer:2.7.1' runtime 'ws-commons-java5:ws-commons-java5:1.0.1' I made multiple tests in removing them in combination with removing specialpurpose components and I don't observe anything breaking. Some of them are replaced by dependencies when deleted while others are just gone. So I prefer to remove them and it's always easy to introduce things back if we discover any issues that we missed. They seem to be mostly things that had a PoC from the past like bean mappers or so. Should I go ahead? opinions? Taher Alkhateeb
