[jbossws-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBWS-2687) JBossWS commandline tools requires Sun JDK to work. This dependency must be removed

[Richard Opalka (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-2687?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12472965#action_12472965 ] 

Richard Opalka commented on JBWS-2687:
--------------------------------------

AFAICS it comes from Sun's WSImport we're using.
This tool has precondition there's $SUN_JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar on the classpath.
Unfortunately this jar is not available in Open JDK (although this JDK was created from Sun's JDK).
I'd at least review the source code of this WSImport tool whether it is possible to pass JAVAC compiler
using some option/property. If it would be possible to propagate the compiler to the WSImport
then we're done. If it's not possible to propagate javac compiler to wsimport, then we should investigate
another way how we could compile the artifacts generated from WSImport. 

The dependency is only about javac compiler. Maybe we could use Java's exec approach?

> One of the goals for the next SOA-P CP is to see the whole platform certified with OpenJDK 1.6
> I tried to run JBossWS on OpenJDK 1.6 and found the following dependency in our code:
> ---
> [ERROR] com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not available in the classpath, requires Suns JDK version 5.0 or latter.
> compilation failed, errors should have been reported
> Failed to invoke WsImport
> java.lang.IllegalStateException: WsImport invocation failed. Try the verbose switch for more information
> 	at org.jboss.ws.tools.jaxws.impl.SunRIConsumerImpl.consume(SunRIConsumerImpl.java:233)
> 	at org.jboss.wsf.spi.tools.cmd.WSConsume.importServices(WSConsume.java:222)
> 	at org.jboss.wsf.spi.tools.cmd.WSConsume.main(WSConsume.java:80)

> This dependency causes our command line tools (at least wsconsume) doesn't work on Open JDK :(
