---------------------------------------
Hi Vedran
Np, thanks for finding the time.
I removed those dependencies because they were 'optional' and the auto
configuration module compiled OK without them and jaxws and jaxrs starters do
list them, I'm OK with bringing them back, can you explain why it is important ?
SpringComponentScanServer helps with auto-discovering JAX-RS specific
resources, but it is not the only option, SampleRestApplication (currently
disabled) imports JaxRsConfig directly and at the moment I can switch the demo
to use SampleRestApplication and remove JaxRsConfig.
I can also consider removing JaxRsConfig from the CXF JAX-RS code and document
that uses working with SpringComponentScanServer should import it directly, but
I'm a bit concerned it might affect some users as I know
SpringComponentScanServer is being used.
So yes, please check if you can make Autoconfiguration 'prevail' even if some
existing code happens to import cxf.xml, I believe I've seen CXF JAX-WS code
fragments targeted for SpringBoot where it is imported too.
Thanks

> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Integration
> Reporter: Vedran Pavic
> Assignee: Sergey Beryozkin
>
> 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.
