[jira] [Comment Edited] (WW-5141) Support for JEE 9+

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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-5141?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17418820#comment-17418820 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------

Gave a try to jakartaee migration tool on struts core.

Java files have been modified properly (607 import fixed). I could just launch maven on the migrated files, after fixing the new dependencies in pom.xml.

Remaining issues are due to dependencies relying on javax:
 * apache commons FileUpload
 * Freemarker

Until those projects have a JEE 9+ compatible version, it looks compromised to do anything.

> JEE 9 breaks the JEE API by replacing javax domain by jakarta.
> Tomcat 10 implements some specifications of JEE 9.
> Struts 2.5 has some dependencies with the javax servlet API.
> Struts would require some changes to run on Tomcat 10+.
> Is there any plan to support JEE 9+ in the future?
