OASIS now makes available a version of the Java APIs and Annotations JAR file in a consumable form

[Mike Edwards]

Folks,

This email announces the availability of a version of the OASIS Java APIs and Annotations JAR file 
in a form that should be directly consumable by Tuscany.

At present, Tuscany has its own copy of the OASIS Java APIs and Annotations, contained in the 
sca-api module.  This new development at OASIS should enable Tuscany to get rid of this module and 
use the "official" API classes directly.

The JAR artifact is located here:

http://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/svn/sca-j/Release/org/oasis-open/sca/j/sca-caa-apis/1.1-CD04/sca-caa-apis-1.1-CD04.jar

This is laid out in a way that can be consumed by Maven.

Here is an example of a Maven dependency for this JAR:

        <!-- This is the SCA API bundle: published by OASIS -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.oasis-open.sca.j</groupId>
            <artifactId>sca-caa-apis</artifactId>
            <version>1.1-CD04</version>
        </dependency>


And here is an example of creating a reference to the OASIS repository:


       <!-- Material for the OASIS SVN repo -->
       <repository>
          <id>oasis.svn</id>
          
<url>http://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/svn/sca-j/Release/</url>
           <releases>
               <enabled>true</enabled>
           </releases>
           <snapshots>
               <enabled>true</enabled>
           </snapshots>
       </repository>
       <!-- End of material for OASIS SVN repo -->


The OASIS test suites are in the process of being adapted to this new JAR and should be updated very 
soon.


Yours,  Mike.
