Add optional module dependency for org.springframework.spring to org.apache.cxf.impl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: WFLY-8860 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-8860 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Web Services Reporter: James Netherton Assignee: Alessio Soldano Similar to WFLY-5532, for our [Camel integration|https://github.com/wildfly-extras/wildfly-camel] the camel-cxf component calls into cxf for Spring namespace handlers. Module {{org.apache.cxf.impl}} exposes a number of resources which have their own Spring namespace handlers. When accessing them (E.g {{org/apache/cxf/transport/http/spring/NamespaceHandler}}), I get: {code} Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed to link org/apache/cxf/transport/http/spring/NamespaceHandler (Module "org.apache.cxf.impl:main" from local module loader @4c75cab9 (finder: local module finder @1ef7fe8e (roots: /home/james/Projects/git/fork/wildfly-camel/itests/standalone/basic/target/wildfly-10.1.0.Final/modules,/home/james/Projects/git/fork/wildfly-camel/itests/standalone/basic/target/wildfly-10.1.0.Final/modules/system/layers/fuse,/home/james/Projects/git/fork/wildfly-camel/itests/standalone/basic/target/wildfly-10.1.0.Final/modules/system/layers/base))): org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/NamespaceHandlerSupport at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:423) at org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader.defineClass(ModuleClassLoader.java:446) at org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader.loadClassLocal(ModuleClassLoader.java:274) at org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader$1.loadClassLocal(ModuleClassLoader.java:78) at org.jboss.modules.Module.loadModuleClass(Module.java:606) at org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader.findClass(ModuleClassLoader.java:190) at org.jboss.modules.ConcurrentClassLoader.performLoadClassUnchecked(ConcurrentClassLoader.java:363) at org.jboss.modules.ConcurrentClassLoader.performLoadClass(ConcurrentClassLoader.java:351) at org.jboss.modules.ConcurrentClassLoader.loadClass(ConcurrentClassLoader.java:93) at org.springframework.util.ClassUtils.forName(ClassUtils.java:250) at org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.DefaultNamespaceHandlerResolver.resolve(DefaultNamespaceHandlerResolver.java:125) ... 19 more {code} Please can we add an optional dependency for {{org.springframework.spring}} to {{org.apache.cxf.impl}}.
