[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Reopened: (JBAS-6444) remove commons-httpclient.jar from AS distribution

remove commons-httpclient.jar from AS distribution -------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-6444 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6444 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Other Affects Versions: JBossAS-5.0.0.GA Reporter: Stan Silvert Assignee: Dimitris Andreadis Fix For: JBossAS-5.1.0.Beta1 In AS5 GA, commons-httpclient was included in commons/lib. However, httpclient depends on commons-codec which was not included. So we need to either add commons-codec or remove httpclient. From this discussion, it appears that we should remove httpclient: http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jboss-development/2009-January/013397.html The current problem is that the RichFaces demo has: <jboss-web> <class-loading> <loader-repository> org.richfaces.samples.richfaces-demo:loader=richfaces-demo-jee5.war <loader-repository-config>java2ParentDelegation=true</loader-repository-config> </loader-repository> </class-loading> </jboss-web> When you run the demo with JSFUnit, the WAR includes commons-httpclient and commons-codec in WEB-INF/lib. Since parent delegation is true it will use commons-httpclient from commons/lib and then fail because it can't find commons-codec.
