Piotr Klimczak commented on KARAF-7668: --------------------------------------- Related discussion: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-19024 > Reintroduce Karaf Spring support like with Spring 3 (we have it working for > 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 Karaf) > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KARAF-7668 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-7668 > Project: Karaf > Issue Type: Wish > Components: karaf > Affects Versions: 4.4.3 > Reporter: Piotr Klimczak > Assignee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré > Priority: Major > > 1st of all, massive thanks to all Karaf devs for keeping it going and getting > better. > Back to subject, official Spring support has been dropped due to Spring > community dropping Spring-DM. > The Spring itself actually still works in OSGi environment via Blueprint > Spring bridge (which is part of Aries project). > We have it working with latest Spring 5 in production for years now with > Karaf 4.2, 4.3 and now migrating to latest 4.4 with Apache CXF, AMQ and Camel > (~200 integrations). > In practice we have Spring 3/Spring-DM like behaviour, which is just few PRs > away to get it supported in Karaf out of the box. > I have started creating some Jiras and PRs in this direction over year ago. > Sadly there is not even a comment in Jira nor PR: ARIES-2045 and ARIES-2046. > Is it possible to open discussion somehow on this subject? > Reality is that there are still people using old Karaf/Fuse, who do not > upgrade because they want to stay on Spring. Currently there is no way out > for them other than migrate away completely from Karaf if they are not keen > on Blueprint (like I am). > WDYT guys? -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
