[jira] [Commented] (DBCP-571) Back to OSGi import of `javax.transaction.xa` package

["Marco (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBCP-571?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17571277#comment-17571277 ] 

Marco commented on DBCP-571:
----------------------------

It's now a year, that I tried to migrate from DBCP to DBCP2 in an osgi environment (Equinox). I started to rework this, and added dbcp2 2.9.0 and now again, my research brought me here. So it seems, that this problem is still not tackled. I'm using Java 17 now, and can't find a way to get this running. So it seems that I again have to revert back to DBCP 1.4!

I tried the geronimo package, and others, and can't get to fix this. Does anybody know if there is another way of fixing this for my setup?

>             Project: Commons DBCP
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Grzegorz Grzybek
>            Priority: Major

> I'd like to refer to DBCP-445 and DBCP-454 issues, which left commons-dbcp2 OSGi bundle with these headers:
> {noformat}
> Import-Package = 
> ...
> 	javax.transaction;version=1.1.0,
> 	javax.transaction.xa;mandatory:=partial;partial=true;version=1.1.0,
> {noformat}
> I've described some findings in https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.transx/issues/33 and I'd like to know what's the rationale behind this "partial" attribute?
> First, {{javax.transaction.xa}} package is _complete_ in both JDK 8 and 9+ ([JPMS|https://openjdk.java.net/projects/jigsaw/spec/]) and it's not missing any class in JDK itself.
> {{javax.transaction}} on the other hand do miss important classes and if anything, this package should be _special_, not {{javax.transaction.xa}}.
> I'll do some resolution test with Karaf and will add more comments later. But if you (DBCP2 devs) know more about the mentioned issues, I'd be happy to learn more ;)
