ejb 2.1 dependency jar - change to freely available jar in M2 Central [SWS-644] #747
Description
Les Hazlewood opened SWS-644 and commented
The spring-ws-parent and spring-ws-support module poms reference the javax.ejb/ejb/2.1 Maven dependency. Because of Sun/Oracle binary distribution restrictions, this dependency does not exist in Maven Central and prevents the build from executing normally upon a fresh checkout from trunk.
To guarantee a clean build with no problems, this dependency should be replaced by referencing a freely available unencumbered .jar instead.
Apache Geronimo provides such distributable .jars for all of the EJB/JEE specifications. A patch will be attached with the following dependency applied instead of the defunct ejb 2.1 .jar:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
<artifactId>geronimo-ejb_2.1_spec</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
Once the patch is applied, the project should build successfully after a checkout without any problems.
Affects: 2.0 M1, 2.0 M2, 2.0 M3
