Uwe Schindler commented on TIKA-1675: ------------------------------------- There was already an issue/discussion open on POI mailing lists and issue tracker to no longer use xmlbeans & Co, because since Java 6 the JAXB interface is a public API that allows to map XML documents to Java Beans - which is exactly the same as xmlbeans is dooing. Unfortunately this is a larger approach to change the API to do use the standards Java API (and might also bring more performance). This would remove a lot of unneeded XML-based stuff from POI for Microsoft Office 2007+ file formats. -1 to absorb the buggy xmlbeans (this lib was also the problem of the major Solr/Lucene security issue last year) +1 to adopt JAXB instead of xmlbeans > please avoid xmlbeans dependency > -------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-1675 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1675 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Robert Muir > > This dependency (e.g jar file) is fundamentally broken...
