Hi Jim,

Here are some bugs / discussions with some test cases that have been fixed (or 
workaround-ed) over the years.

1. SOAP: Aegis databinding Collection of derived classes: 
https://lists.apache.org/thread/rp73ym9f64vpvng057d55mtj3wnznr80
2. SortedMap is not returned when another unrelated method exists in the 
interface: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4605
3. SortedMap is returned as HashMap: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4534
4. Aegis cannot handle nested map inheritance: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3526

I do not remember the specifics but I have been burned by the other serializers 
and the Pavlov reflexes is all I have left.

The jaxrs - (now jakarta.rs) is able to transmit these kind of type (with some 
hand holding) and I have some prototypes that are working. Furthermore the 
receipt from java programs has not been verified - only from browsers 
(Resty-GWT again with hand holding and custom patches).

My problem is time. Scheduling a full migration from Aegis to jax-rs is a very 
serious undertaking.

So I would certainly appreciate the extension of life support of Aegis.

Hope that helps.

Hi Vassilis,
Thanks for your input . It's good to know that there is still some usage
that jaxb or xmlbeans can't nicely handle.
I am curious to know more details about this use case about transfering Map
Of Maps or Map of Collections.
Could you please paste a test case or some code snippet to have a look ?

Thanks,
Jim

I am using it.

Although I plan to move to JAX-RS. However,  I can't be sure about the
scheduling...

Aegis is the simplest and most versatile databinding for java first
development in my opinion.

The others (jax-ws, jaxb and xmlbeans) never worked for me when I had to
transfer
Map Of Maps or Map of Collections.

I just wanted to give you my one datapoint. I understand that the
developers will have to weigh
   carrying around a databinding vs its existing usage vs the development
effort required.

Hi all,
I am not sure if it's the time to deprecate some old cxf things that no
one
is using, so I write to get your thoughts/ideas here.
The first I can think of is aegis databinding. Is the aegis databinding
still used by CXF users ? Is it a good time to deprecate and remove in
the
future release ?

Thanks,
Jim
