[jbossws-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBWS-3413) java.xml.ws.spi.Provider resolution is JVM implementation specific

java.xml.ws.spi.Provider resolution is JVM implementation specific ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBWS-3413 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBWS-3413 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: jbossws-cxf Reporter: Alessio Soldano Assignee: Alessio Soldano Priority: Critical Fix For: jbossws-cxf-4.0.1 The javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider resolution is based on the ServiceLoader.load(Provider.class) internals. That makes it JVM specific due to the different implementation of collections used to store the found resources. This is critical as the jbossws-cxf client Provider impl is responsible for setting the proper thread Bus, ensuring proper deployment isolation. We need to prevent potential issues (especially with IBM JDK) by avoiding duplicates of META-INF/services/javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider (Apache CXF one vs JBossWS-CXF one).
