---------------------------------
> sling-mock: Transitive dependency reflections includes very old xml-apis
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-4938
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4938
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Testing
> Affects Versions: Testing Sling Mock 1.4.0
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Fix For: Testing Sling Mock 1.5.0
>
>
> Whenever a maven project depends on {{o.a.s.testing.sling-mock}} it
> automatically depends on {{xml-apis}} in version {{1.0.b2}}.
> This is problematic as this is not only a very old version but also it is
> very hard to determine which version should be used with which JRE
> (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11677572/dealing-with-xerces-hell-in-java-maven).
> Therefore could we just explicitly ignore the transitive dependency {{dom4j}}
> on the dependency {{reflections}} within {{sling-mock}}?
> I see that {{reflections}} is only used in {{ModelAdapterFactoryUtil}} and I
> don't see why {{dom4j}} would be necessary there. Maybe we could also get rid
> of the other optional dependencies {{javassist}}, {{slf4j-api}}, {{gson}},
> {{servlet-api}} (https://github.com/ronmamo/reflections/blob/master/pom.xml)?
> That way the classpath would be much leaner and cleaner.
