[infinispan-issues] [Red Hat JIRA] (ISPN-12618) Configuration/Serialization refactoring

Tristan Tarrant created ISPN-12618: -------------------------------------- Summary: Configuration/Serialization refactoring Key: ISPN-12618 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-12618 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Configuration Reporter: Tristan Tarrant Assignee: Tristan Tarrant Fix For: 13.0.0.Final Currently Infinispan's configuration parsers and serializers rely on {{XmlStreamReader}} and {{XmlStreamWriter}} from {{java.xml}} directly. This means that supporting other formats (JSON, YAML) requires writing parallel implementations. Additionally, referencing {{java.xml}} pulls in 200 classes which have an RSS impact of about 20MB. We should refactor the parsing/serialization code so that it can support multiple formats. The [XPP3|https://www.extreme.indiana.edu/xgws/xsoap/xpp/] implementation is very compact and doesn't rely on the internal {{java.xml}} classes. Identify other modules which may pull in XML classes and try to avoid that. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.13.1#813001)
