Description Paul Gier 2014-05-19 16:26:05 UTC
The version of sun jaxb that we are currently using is a couple of years old.  QE requested an upgrade to a more recent version in bug #1070281.  The current stable version is 2.2.7 which is two micro versions newer than our current version (2.2.5).

Comment 1 Rostislav Svoboda 2014-06-06 09:57:52 UTC
BZ 1070281 has all acks ++ blocker + ... this should be fixed as soon as possible

Comment 2 Rostislav Svoboda 2014-06-06 10:00:53 UTC
BZ 1070281 requested to sync it with upstream which is using 2.2.6
Adding Alessio for feedback about move to 2.2.7

JBossWS CXF trunk is on 2.2.6 - http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossws/stack/cxf/trunk/pom.xml      <jaxb.impl.version>2.2.6</jaxb.impl.version>

Comment 3 Rostislav Svoboda 2014-06-06 10:46:08 UTC
JBossWS trunk is now on 2.2.7 - https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBWS-3799

<asoldano> rsvoboda, there should not be problems; anyway I'm moving our trunk to 2.2.7 right now

So upgrade to 2.2.7 in EAP is fine.

Comment 4 Rostislav Svoboda 2014-06-06 10:47:11 UTC
FYI - blocker? added because BZ 1070281 has blocker +

Comment 6 Paul Gier 2014-06-10 19:16:28 UTC
To provide some additional information regarding the risk of this upgrade, there was an upstream issue to refactor the jars in 2.2.7.
https://java.net/jira/browse/JAXB-912

We should be able to get this upgrade into the upstream wildfly sources (WFLY-3372), and test it there before consuming the upgrade in EAP.

EAP 7.0 has jaxb 2.2.11
