Hello, while doing the exploration of running tests on Java 11 I found out that from that version onward Java EE APIs are no longer distributed with Java[1].
I think this makes a difference in how we declare the dependencies. So for instance JAXB API is no longer available, we need to add it and we have two options: 1. declare in the <dependencies> directly If we declare it in the <dependencies> directly, then some clients might need to exclude that dependency: for instance application servers might bundle a version of JAXB API and having another version might lead to issues. 2. declare in the <dependencies> of the Java 11+ <profile> In this case Camel is OK when build/tested on Java 11+, but client might get a ClassNotFoundException on Java 11+. This is based on my understanding that Maven profiles in dependencies are considered only at build time of the dependency, not when that dependency is used. Am I wrong about this? What can we do? Declare that from some version of Camel (say 3.0.0) we only support Java 11? zoran [1] http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/320 -- Zoran Regvart
