---------------------------------
Summary: Consider adding Spring Boot starter
Key: CXF-6869
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6869
Project: CXF
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Integration
Reporter: Vedran Pavic
I've recently authored a PR in Spring Boot to add support for
auto-configuration of {{CXFServlet}} and default CXF's configuration:
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/pull/5659
The PR was closed with "won't fix" resolution since Boot team are unwilling to
add CXF as a dependency to the project. Instead a 3rd party starter was
suggested.
The concept of a 3rd party starter is generally encouraged for technologies
that don't have first-class support in projects from Spring portfolio. Such 3rd
party starters are listed here:
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/blob/master/spring-boot-starters/README.adoc
If CXF team is interested, I'm willing to port my PR to CXF.
Note that the original PR was focused around JAX-WS support, but can be easily
expanded to include JAX-RS support as well.
