Sergey Beryozkin commented on CXF-6869: --------------------------------------- Hi Vedran, thanks, well, if we talk about the users who are not familiar with SpringBoot then it was me who was such a user when I started modifying a demo originally contributed to CXF :-). And I think the principle of the least surprise was not met. Re the service descriptions - an issue exists to move a Swagger related code into a diff module. Adding a WADL filter which will check every request when people would only expect Swagger support and likewise having an extra Swagger endpoint or filter around when only WADL is needed will not be ideal, but I do agree the service description should be coming OOB for RS services too, I'd only like to have a dedicated discussion/solution done later on. Cheers, Sergey > Consider adding Spring Boot starter > ----------------------------------- > > Key: CXF-6869 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6869 > Project: CXF > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Integration > Reporter: Vedran Pavic > Assignee: Sergey Beryozkin > > I've recently authored a PR in Spring Boot to add support for > auto-configuration of {{CXFServlet}} and default CXF's configuration: > https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/pull/5659 > The PR was closed with "won't fix" resolution since Boot team are unwilling > to add CXF as a dependency to the project. Instead a 3rd party starter was > suggested. > The concept of a 3rd party starter is generally encouraged for technologies > that don't have first-class support in projects from Spring portfolio. Such > 3rd party starters are listed here: > https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/blob/master/spring-boot-starters/README.adoc > If CXF team is interested, I'm willing to port my PR to CXF. > Note that the original PR was focused around JAX-WS support, but can be > easily expanded to include JAX-RS support as well. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
