eye-gu opened a new issue, #6353: URL: https://github.com/apache/shenyu/issues/6353
### Is there an existing issue for this? - [x] I have searched the existing issues ### Current Behavior The WASM plugin currently depends on `wasmtime-java`, which bundles native libraries (`.so` / `.dylib` / `.dll`) via JNI. This causes: 1. **Project inactivity** — [`wasmtime-java`](https://github.com/kawamuray/wasmtime-java) has not been actively maintained, with no recent releases or commits, making it a risk for bug fixes and new WASM features 2. **Platform lock-in** — native binaries must match the deployment OS and arch precisely. In practice, the current test suites cannot actually load and execute WASM on GitHub CI because the native wasmtime library is unavailable in that environment. Tests are mocked with fake Java implementations that bypass WASM entirely, meaning **no real WASM execution is being tested** **Proposal:** Replace wasmtime-java with [Chicory](https://github.com/dylibso/chicory) — an actively maintained pure-Java WASM runtime (Apache 2.0 licensed). Benefits: - **Actively maintained** — regular releases, responsive community - **Runtime compilation** — Chicory's `compiler` module translates WASM bytecode to JVM bytecode at load time via `MachineFactoryCompiler`, significantly improving execution speed over interpreter mode. Also support AOT compilation. - Zero native dependencies, runs anywhere the JVM runs ### Expected Behavior _No response_ ### Steps To Reproduce _No response_ ### Environment ```markdown ShenYu version(s): ``` ### Debug logs _No response_ ### Anything else?
