Overwriteignore excluded-artifacts from quarkus-undertow - Stack Overflow

A Maven project uses Quarkus 3/Untertow which uses the jakarta.servlet namespace. There also exists a separate library that still uses the old javax.servlet namespace, without an update to the jakarta namespace.

Using the org.apache.felix.http.wrappers artifact there could be a conversion between the jakarta namespace into the javax namespace, but the interface javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest is needed at runtime.

Adding javax.servlet:javax.servlet-api:4.0.1 as runtime dependency doesn't work as the pom.xml for quarkus-undertow uses the following plugin to exclude some artifacts:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>

• Nto sure if this is about quarkus or maven (I suspect the later). – Turing85 Commented Feb 2 at 13:02

Could you explain a bit more clearly what you're trying to achieve with org.apache.felix.http.wrappers?

Because if you want to use it completely independently from Quarkus Undertow, then I could be convinced to drop these exclusions. Indeed you cannot override them yourself. I did that when we transitioned to be cautious but we could probably relax it now.

But if you are trying to use org.apache.felix.http.wrappers as part of the Undertow infrastructure then it won't work as you would need a version using the Jakarta namespace.

Let me know and if it's the former, we can relax things in the next version.
