Shameera Rathnayaka updated AXIS2-3933: --------------------------------------- Attachment: AXIS2-3933.patch Hi all , For a better architecture, kernel shouldn't have any dependency for transport specific library, I was able to remove httpclient 3.1 dependency from kernel pom with some modifications. Then i ran the full build of axis2 with tests it did build successfully. I have attached patch file with this. Oleg had removed to some extent so i referred his patch and did rest of the modifications to decouple kernel and httpclient. But there is one thing to point out, 1. kernel has a class called SSLProtocolSocketFactory which implements org.apache.commons.httpclient.protocol.SecureProtocolSocketFactory but there is no any usage of this class. In TrustAllTrustManager, this class is used in a comment. As it seems this is a duplicate of org.apache.commons. httpclient.protocol.SSLProtocolSocketFactory class, i have only removed the interface implementation from this SSLProtocolSocketFactory class which has a direct dependency for httpclient3.1 , But i think it would be ok even if we remove this class.
