Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2778:
-----------------------------------
It looks like we do need the javax.activation dependency for compiling with
Java 11. When I try to build with Java 11 without it, I get this:
/...tika-parsers/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/parser/journal/GrobidRESTParser.java:[75,26]
cannot access javax.activation.DataSource
[ERROR] class file for javax.activation.DataSource not found
org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.ext.multipart.Attachment uses:
import javax.activation.DataHandler;
import javax.activation.DataSource;
> Upgrade jaxb-runtime and javax.activation

> Key: TIKA-2778
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2778
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.19.1
> Reporter: Hans Brende
> Priority: Major
>
> The latest version of org.glassfish.jaxb:jaxb-runtime is 2.3.1, which fixes a
> few issues on Java 11. A few important notes to take into consideration:
> 1. jaxb-core is no longer a separate artifact, but has been merged into
> jaxb-runtime.
> 2. jaxb-runtime now pulls in the latest version of the activation API, which
> is: javax.activation:javax.activation-api:1.2.0. *However*, this artifact
> does not include a couple of the source files found in
> javax.activation:activation:1.1.1 (namely, those found in the
> com.sun.activation.* packages). The activation artifact which includes those
> extra sources has moved to: com.sun.activation:javax.activation:1.2.0.
> *However*, if I'm seeing this correctly, the com.sun.activation artifact
> *duplicates* all the code found in the activation-api artifact, rather than
> depending on it. If that's the case, and *if* you still need those extra
> classes in the activation artifact, one might need to manually exclude the
> activation-api artifact pulled in by jaxb-runtime. But, I'm not 100% certain
> here.
