Hi guys.
If I want to target the Java EE full profile, I use go here
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax/javaee-api/8.0 and get the
following XML snippet.
<dependency>
<groupId>javax</groupId>
<artifactId>javaee-api</artifactId>
<version>8.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
If I want to target the Java EE web profile, I use this url instead
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax/javaee-web-api/8.0
And if I only need a subset of JSRs included in the javaee web profile,
they are all nicely included in the list of compile dependencies, this is
all very nice.
Since tomcat only supports a subset of the web profile, which dependencies
should be added in maven ?
Here's the full list for the Java EE 7 Web profile.
javax.annotation:javax.annotation-api:1.2
javax.ejb:javax.ejb-api:3.2
javax.el:javax.el-api:3.0.0
javax.enterprise:cdi-api:1.1
javax.faces:javax.faces-api:2.2
javax.inject:javax.inject:1
javax.interceptor:javax.interceptor-api:1.2
javax.json:javax.json-api:1.0
javax.servlet:javax.servlet-api:3.1.0
javax.servlet.jsp:javax.servlet.jsp-api:2.3.1
javax.servlet.jsp.jstl:javax.servlet.jsp.jstl-api:1.2.1
javax.transaction:javax.transaction-api:1.2
javax.validation:validation-api:1.1.0.Final
javax.websocket:javax.websocket-api:1.0
javax.ws.rs:javax.ws.rs-api:2.0
org.eclipse.persistence:javax.persistence:2.1.0
org.glassfish:javax.faces:2.2.0
I ask because I couldn't find the answer on the web, and it seems to me
that many sources are actually quite wrong and how it should be done.
I believe this should appear in a section of the tomcat documentation, at
least for versions 6, 7, and 8 of Java EE, which Tomcat seems to track.
