Rene Gielen commented on WW-4207: --------------------------------- I make a case for upgrading to OGNL 3.0.9, for which I hope the following change will be applied :) - Upgrade javassist dependency to 3.1.18 The reason is that this version is not only compatible with Hibernate 4, but also with JDK8. Incompatibility with Hibernate 4 is due to the fact that javassisst groupId unfortunately changed from javassist to org.javassist. Thus you get two javassist jar in your built artifact. Currently, to work with Hibernate and other tools introducing transiteve dependencies to newer javassist coordinates and versions, one has to exclude "old" dependency from struts-core: {code:xml} <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId> <artifactId>struts2-core</artifactId> <version>${struts2.version}</version> <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>javassist</groupId> <artifactId>javassist</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions> </dependency> {code} Should I raise an issue for OGNL, and if yes, where? > Upgrade to OGNL 3.0.8 > --------------------- > > Key: WW-4207 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4207 > Project: Struts 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Value Stack > Affects Versions: 2.3.15 > Reporter: Lukasz Lenart > Assignee: Lukasz Lenart > Fix For: 2.5 > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
