Google App Engine

Apache Wink can be run using Google App Engine.
The core functionality is fully compatible.
However, due to some of the App Engine limitations, some of the additional functionality may not work correctly.

Known Limitations

  • JAXB - Google App Engine doesn't support JAXB. Therefore, the built-in JAXB, Atom and JSON providers won't work.

Logging

Google uses java.util.logging, also referred to as JDK 1.4 logging. Apache Wink uses slf4j. In order to enable Wink's logging, replace slf4j-simple-<version>.jar with slf4j-jdk14-<version>.jar.

Tip

When running with Spring, make sure that you have jcl-over-slf4j-<version>.jar in the classpath. This jar is needed, since Spring uses commons-logging.
