[jira] [Commented] (CXF-9143) Remove Jakarta Mail and Jakarta Activation-Impl Dependencies

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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-9143?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17955399#comment-17955399 ] 

Daniel Meier commented on CXF-9143:
-----------------------------------

After removing the dependency on the activation API Implementation, the `org.apache.cxf.jaxws.context.WrappedMessageContextTest#testPutAndGetJaxwsAttachments` test failed. Since I am not sure if it is only a problem of the test or a underlying problem of the activation API, I only made changes to the mail dependencies

> We are currently in the process of upgrading our application from Jakarta EE 8 to Jakarta EE 10 which of course also affects CXF. Our application also uses the Jakarta Mail API and to make progress during migration I just commented out the old dependency on the Sun Mail Implementation ({{com.sun.mail:jakarta.mail}}) and wanted to look at it at a later time. I then saw that a mail implementation (Apache Angus) was a transitive dependency of CXF. I looked at the source code of CXF and it seems like not even the Jakarta Mail API is used outside of test code.
> A implementation of the Jakarta Activation API (Apache Angus) is also a dependency of CXF, even though no SPI classes ({{MailcapRegistry}}, {{MailcapRegistryProvider}}, {{MimeTypeRegistry}}, {{MimeTypeRegistryProvider}}) are used.
> Would it be possible to remove those transitive Dependencies?
