* Package name : javabeans-activation-framework Version : 1.2.0 Upstream Author : Oracle * URL : https://github.com/javaee/activation * License : CDDL-1.1 or GPL-2 with Classpath exception Programming Lang: Java Description : JavaBeans Activation Framework The JavaBeans Activation Framework (JAF) is a standard extension to the Java platform that lets you take advantage of standard services to: determine the type of an arbitrary piece of data; encapsulate access to it; discover the operations available on it; and instantiate the appropriate bean to perform the operation(s). This API used to be a standard part of the JRE since Java 6, but starting with Java 9 it's no longer available in the default classpath without a special JVM parameter, and it's likely to be removed in a future version of the JRE. Upstream projects depending on the activation framework, typically through the JavaMail API, are now adding back this jar after removing it a few years ago to ensure the compatibility with Java 9. This package will be maintained by the Java Team.
