CXF Import-Package version specifiers causes 'uses' conflict
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CXF-2216
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-2216
Project: CXF
Issue Type: Bug
Components: OSGi
Affects Versions: 2.2.1
Environment: Equinox
Reporter: Hendy Irawan
Equinox exports system packages as version=0.0.0. CXF bundle (and CXF bundle
jaxrs) imports some of these packages as specific versions. This causes
problems because:
* Application Developer has to provide bundles for these packages instead of
letting CXF use the packages that Equinox exports
* When another bundle uses a system package specifying version=0.0.0, for
example javax.mail;version=1.4.0 uses javax.activation;version=0.0.0, this
causes "uses" conflict because CXF uses javax.mail;version=1.4.0 and
javax.activation;version=1.0
* My workaround was to patch the CXF jar manifest.mf to remove version
specifiers in some packages it imports
I've identified 5 packages that better have its version specifier left out in
CXF's Import-Package:
* javax.activation
* javax.annotation
* javax.xml.stream
* javax.xml.stream.events
* javax.xml.stream.util
Thanks.
