  • Support of Spring Framework 6 / Spring Boot 3

    The Spring Framework 6 / Spring Boot 3 runtimes are compatible with Jakarta EE 9.1 and Jakarta EE 10, but may bring Jakarta EE 10 dependencies by default at build time (for example, https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/29435). The Apache CXF 4.0 is not yet compatible with Jakarta EE 10 (see please Unable to render Jira issues macro, execution error. ) and in some cases you may need to manually override the versions of the dependecies.
