Description Julian Coleman 2012-04-11 16:45:26 UTC
Affects Drools 5.3.x and jBPM 5.2.x at least.

When assembling BRMS-P from Drools/jBPm modules and their dependencies, multiple third-party jar versions are used:

asm-3.1.jar
asm-3.3.jar

commons-codec-1.2.jar
commons-codec-1.3.jar

cxf-api-2.4.1.jar
cxf-bundle-jaxrs-2.4.1.jar
cxf-common-utilities-2.2.9.jar
cxf-rt-bindings-soap-2.4.1.jar
cxf-rt-bindings-xml-2.4.1.jar
cxf-rt-core-2.4.1.jar
cxf-rt-databinding-aegis-2.2.9.jar
cxf-rt-databinding-jaxb-2.4.1.jar
cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs-2.2.9.jar
cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws-2.4.1.jar
cxf-rt-frontend-simple-2.4.1.jar
cxf-rt-transports-http-2.2.9.jar
cxf-rt-ws-addr-2.4.1.jar
cxf-tools-common-2.4.1.jar

spring-aop-2.5.6.jar
spring-asm-3.0.5.RELEASE.jar
spring-beans-2.5.6.jar
spring-context-2.5.6.jar
spring-core-2.5.6.jar
spring-expression-3.0.5.RELEASE.jar
spring-tx-3.0.3.RELEASE.jar
spring-web-2.5.6.jar

xmlbeans-2.3.0.jar
xmlbeans-2.4.0.jar

xstream-1.3.1.jar
xstream-1.4.1.jar

The different versions appear to be the result of transitive dependencies of direct dependencies.  They should be unified by using a dependencyManagement section in the parent POM.  Also, as a minimum, Spring versions should be upgraded to 2.5.6 SEC02 and 3.0.6.

What brings in the CXF  2.2.x deps? Those shouldn't be necessary as we have no issues with shipping 2.4.x in the jboss-brms-engine.zip.

Comment 2 Geoffrey De Smet 2012-04-20 15:20:21 UTC
We've upgraded everything to spring 3.0.6.RELEASE.

Comment 3 Geoffrey De Smet 2012-04-20 15:22:51 UTC
I can't reproduce the different cxf versions.
Here's my listing of the droolsjbpm-integration-distribution-5.3.2-SNAPSHOT zip:

$ pwd
/home/gdesmet/projects/jboss/branches/droolsjbpm-5.3.x/droolsjbpm-integration/droolsjbpm-integration-distribution/target/droolsjbpm-integration-distribution-5.3.2-SNAPSHOT/droolsjbpm-integration-distribution-5.3.2-SNAPSHOT/binaries
$ ls cxf-*.jar
cxf-api-2.4.1.jar           cxf-common-utilities-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-bindings-xml-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-databinding-jaxb-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws-2.4.1.jar   cxf-rt-transports-common-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-ws-addr-2.4.1.jar
cxf-bundle-jaxrs-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-bindings-soap-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-core-2.4.1.jar          cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs-2.4.1.jar    cxf-rt-frontend-simple-2.4.1.jar  cxf-rt-transports-http-2.4.1.jar    cxf-tools-common-2.4.1.jar

Comment 4 Geoffrey De Smet 2012-04-20 15:36:43 UTC
There are 2 types of issues here:
- 1) Different versions of different artifacts of the same framework mixed. That's bad. These should all be ok now:
-- spring is fixed
-- cxf is unreproducable (not in integration and not in guvnor)
- 2) Different versions of same artifact. That can be normal in some cases (maven conflict detection will deal it when they arrive in the same classpath). Simply overwritting them in dependencyManagement is dangerous as we could inadvertently and silently overwrite it with a too low version (especially if upgrade other dependencies later on).
-- common-codec. Cannot reproduce (*) Already defined as 1.5 in droolsjbpm-parent's dependencyManagement. So both 1.2 and 1.3 are wrong.
-- asm: Cannot reproduce (*)
-- xmlbeans: Cannot reproduce (*)
-- xstream Cannot reproduce (*) Already defined as 1.4.1 in droolsjbpm-parent's dependencyManagement.

(*) Not enough information to reproduce: I 'll need to know which droolsjbpm artifacts (= GAV's) are responsible for bringing in the different versions.
Or which .org assembly zip has those multiple different versions of the same artifact.

Update status to ON_QA. Please verify them against ER6.

Comment 8 Lukáš Petrovický 2012-05-02 07:34:17 UTC
CFX is 2.2.12-patch-02, found no duplicates, marking this as VERIFIED.
