Carsten Heyl created CXF-7061: --------------------------------- Summary: Avoid asm library conflicts - please follow ow2 repackage recommendation Key: CXF-7061 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-7061 Project: CXF Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 3.1.7 Reporter: Carsten Heyl Priority: Minor
Repeatingly people get conflicts because of different asm library versions and because ow2 didn't change package names between incompatible versions of the asm library. Ow2 recommends that libraries/components using asm byte processing bundle their own repackages version of asm. I suggest that CXF does the same and avoid conflicts for the future. http://asm.ow2.org/doc/faq.html#Q15 It's the third time I got bitten by this and it's a waste of time and blaming other libraries and trying to run other libraries without correct asm version does not help. Updating legacy applications is a pain without those issues. I know that a similiar issue has been rejected in the past (adding a dependency to a repackaged asm) but in my opinion CXF is a major component and should play nicely with others and should repacke on it's own. Thank you for providing such a great product. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
