... and the preliminary patch for using XmlBeans 4.0.1 + Batik sub-components (because the batik-all artifact has (duplicated) references to all sub-components)
When I commit the changes to the XmlBeans repo, I would download the .jar from Jenkins (into POI) while it's not yet released. On 21.02.21 18:05, Andreas Beeker wrote:
HI PJ, I've added the patch to XMLBEANS-555 - sorry for that vintage approach, I'm not working with GIT in the Apache context.

I guess the main comparison would be to compare the generated source from xmlbeans 3 or 4 to what we would generate after the patch. If the POI code does not need any changes after the proposed xmlbeans change then it seems likely that the new approach is a good way to go -- simpler generated code but easy for existing users to uptake.

I've refactored the beans generation so there are no Factory inner classes in the beans interfaces. This would be a breaking change and user code needs to be compiled again, but I think it's worth it as it's much less duplicated code now. I've regenerated the poi beans and no changes on our code was necessary. Apart of that I made the batik dependencies optional and handle errors while using the Serviceloader. If user code is accessing the Service Provider code directly when running on the module-path, they'll get a NoClassDefFoundError. I thought about wrapping that error, but I would simply add a FAQ entry and hope that Batik eventually fixes that error. I would wait two days for a review offer and otherwise commit the xmlbeans change and upgrade the poi/xmlbeans dependency. Best wishes, Andi
