[jira] [Commented] (WW-4435) CXF broken with upgrade of ASM 5 since Struts 2.3.20

Phil Varner commented on WW-4435:
---------------------------------

I had the same issue and was able to run CXF compiled for ASM 3 with ASM 5 and my own application's use of ASM with ASM 5 (which uses ASM 5 indirectly through cglib 3.1. cglib 3.1 is compiled against ASM 4, but will run with ASM 5).

> Hi,
> Since upgrade of Struts in 2.3.20, the version of ASM has been upgraded to 5.0.2.
> Actually, I use CXF with Struts 2.
> The problem is CXF uses ASM 3.x and it's not compatible with the new API of ASM 5.0.2. All interfaces *Visitor.java have been replaced with abstract classes and the class "WrapperClassGenerator" in CXF is broken because it uses the interfaces "AnnotationVisitor", "FieldVisitor" and "MethodVisitor".
> Why do you upgrade ASM 3.3 to ASM 5.0.2 (four years between the two versions!) with this patch of Struts 2 (2.3.20)?
> Is there a workaround?
> Thank you in advance.
