------------------------------------

             Summary: javax package system class default is too broad
                 Key: HADOOP-11049
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11049
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: util
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
            Reporter: Sangjin Lee
            Assignee: Sangjin Lee
            Priority: Minor


The system class default defined in ApplicationClassLoader has "javax.". This 
is too broad. The intent of the system classes is to exempt classes that are 
provided by the JDK along with hadoop and minimally necessary dependencies that 
are guaranteed to be on the system classpath. "javax." is too broad for that.

For example, JSR-330 which is part of JavaEE (not JavaSE) has "javax.inject". 
Packages like them should not be declared as system classes, as they will 
result in ClassNotFoundException if they are needed and present on the user 
classpath.
