[jira] Created: (JSPWIKI-204) Consider upgrading xmlrpc.jar to a
more recent version
Consider upgrading xmlrpc.jar to a more recent version
------------------------------------------------------
Key: JSPWIKI-204
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-204
Project: JSPWiki
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.6.1
Environment: Debian (etch), Tomcat 5.5
Reporter: Steve Dahl
Priority: Minor
I couldn't find this issue in the database, and didn't want to see it get lost.
I've been having trouble with the Transclude plugin in JSPWiki 2.6.x, and the analysis to date suggests that the problem is that XML-RPC is using an outdated and incomplete XML parser.
The conversation in jspwiki-user ended more or less with this:
>> We are using an older version of Apache XML-RPC and the current
>> version (3.1) doesn't use MinML. We haven't upgraded because of
>> time constraints and not wanting to break something that isn't
>> broken. This does sound a bit broken though.
> Yup, it sounds like a very good reason for an upgrade. Could someone please open up a task in the JIRA tracker?

----------------------------------------
Ugh. Looking at xml-rpc 3.1, it seems that it requires no less than three .jars (assuming the client side libs can be omitted). This is awful.
Are you sure that setting sax.driver is not sufficient? Because if this is the only reason, we might as well stick to the old library.

[jira] Commented: (JSPWIKI-204) Consider upgrading xmlrpc.jar to a

Kalle Kivimaa commented on JSPWIKI-204:
---------------------------------------
An additional reason for upgrading the xml-rpc to 3.1 is that it would help in getting the JSPWiki package (back) in Debian, as that would require either having full source included in the JSPWiki source package or build-depending on only such components that are in Debian (xml-rpc is at version 3.1 in Debian).
This isn't time-critical, as there are still other dependencies missing, namely jsonrpc (should probably migrate to jabsorb, as jsonrpc isn't maintained any more), jrcs-diff, sandler and akismet, and I need to package these first (or include the source), and getting new packages into Debian at the moment is non-trivial, as the project is close to releasing the new version.
Is it really that bad to have two more jars in the lib?

----------------------------------------
Hmm... But I think you can still use a different XML parser by specifying it on the command line:
java -Dsax.driver=your.sax.driver
when starting JSPWiki... Put it in your CATALINA_OPTS or somewhere. Does this help?

-----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.8.1)
3.0
Bumped to 3.0... Lots of changes in it anyway, so we might as well do this upgrade there.

But I really don't know. Is there no other possibility for the XML-RPC parser?

----------------------------------------
JAR bloat is bad... Every single new JAR will add a new dependency, also for Debian :-/. jabsorb transition is also an item (JSPWIKI-276).
