Daniel Meier updated CXF-9143:
------------------------------
Description:
We are currently in the process of upgrading our application from Jakarta EE 8
to Jakarta EE 10 which of course also affects CXF. Our application also uses
the Jakarta Mail API and to make progress during migration I just commented out
the old dependency on the Sun Mail Implementation
({{com.sun.mail:jakarta.mail}}) and wanted to look at it at a later time. I
then saw that a mail implementation (Apache Angus) was a transitive dependency
of CXF. I looked at the source code of CXF and it seems like not even the
Jakarta Mail API is used outside of test code.
A implementation of the Jakarta Activation API (Apache Angus) is also a
dependency of CXF, even though no SPI classes ({{MailcapRegistry}},
{{MailcapRegistryProvider}}, {{MimeTypeRegistry}},
{{MimeTypeRegistryProvider}}) are used.
Would it be possible to remove those transitive Dependencies?
