[equinox-dev] OSGi and javax.jws.WebService with Java 11

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm trying to migrate an RCP client to Java 11. All good so far only
the webservice which was part of Java 8 refused to start with an
sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl exception.

Exception:
Caused by: javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Provider
com.sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl not found
at javax.xml.ws.spi.FactoryFinder$1.createException(FactoryFinder.java:61)
at javax.xml.ws.spi.FactoryFinder$1.createException(FactoryFinder.java:58)

at java.base/java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:564)
at org.eclipse.e4.c

Example:

import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebService;

@WebService
public class WebServiceExample {
    private String message = new String("Hello, ");

    public void Hello() {}

    @WebMethod
    public String sayHello(String name) {
        return message + name + ".";
    }
}

And I start it via:
----
import org.eclipse.e4.core.di.annotations.Execute;

import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint;

public class StartWebserviceHandler {

@Execute
public void execute() {
  String url = "http://localhost:4434/miniwebservice";;
      Endpoint.publish( url, new WebServiceExample() );
}
}

---------


I started to add libraries from Maven central via the new PDE / M2e
integration but it seems that this pull and endless list of
dependencies into the classpath.

Is anyone aware of a working example using such a Webservice inside
OSGi with Java 11 or higher?

Best regards, Lars
