javax.transaction dependency should be compile ---------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-5696 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-5696 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Build process Affects Versions: 8.0.0.CR1 Reporter: Galder Zamarreño Assignee: Tristan Tarrant Priority: Blocker Fix For: 8.0.0.Final ISPN-5541 made all javax dependencies provided, including javax.transaction. This dependency though is needed for building transactional configuration, even if you're using no transactional configurations. E.g. constructing {{new DefaultCacheManager()}} without that dependency throws: {code} Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/transaction/TransactionManager at org.infinispan.configuration.cache.TransactionConfiguration.<clinit>(TransactionConfiguration.java:30) at org.infinispan.configuration.cache.TransactionConfigurationBuilder.<init>(TransactionConfigurationBuilder.java:37) at org.infinispan.configuration.cache.ConfigurationBuilder.<init>(ConfigurationBuilder.java:53) at org.infinispan.manager.DefaultCacheManager.<init>(DefaultCacheManager.java:213) at org.infinispan.manager.DefaultCacheManager.<init>(DefaultCacheManager.java:134) at org.infinispan.tutorial.simple.functional.InfinispanFunctional.main(InfinispanFunctional.java:22) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:497) at com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain.main(AppMain.java:140) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.transaction.TransactionManager at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:331) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357) ... 11 more {code} The quick fix is to reinstate not-provided for {{javax.transaction}}. Longer term, this dependency should not kick in unless you have a transactional cache configuration.
