Migrate aries transaction to Jakarta EE APIs

[f2par0]

In order to be able to create a version ops4j.pax.jms jakarta (cf ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.jms#72), providing a aries version compatible to jakarta is necessary

• Upgrade to Java 17
• Change javax.transaction* to jakarta.transaction* except for javax.transaction.xa provided by jdk
• Updated geronimo-connector from 3.1.5 to 4.0.0 in pom.xml, osgi.core to 8.0.0 and osgi.cmpn to 7.0.0
• Updated pom.xm to use Jakarta dependencies:
  • jakarta.resource-api instead of geronimo-j2ee-connector_1.6_spec
  • jakarta.validation-api instead of geronimo-validation_1.0_spec
  • jakarta.interceptor-api instead of javax.interceptor-api
  • jakarta.inject-api instead of javax-inject servicemix bundle
  • jakarta.el-api instead of javax.el-api
  • jakarta.enterprise.cdi-api instead of javax.enterprise.cdi-api
  • jakarta.transaction-api instead of javax.transaction-api

this might also need an osgi-spec update

Hello,
the org.osgi.core has been updated to 8.0.0 and org.osgi.cmpn to 7.0.0, which dependency should be updated ?

[stbischof]

i would recomment to not use the cmpn anymore.

just use the apis wou really need
like

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.osgi</groupId>
    <artifactId>org.osgi.service.transaction.control</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
    <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

what i am not aware of if is in the spec is any reference to a javax class is set that must be switched to jakarta.
https://docs.osgi.org/specification/osgi.cmpn/8.1.0/service.transaction.control.html

in this case i would recomment to open an issue here:

http://github.com/osgi/osgi/issues

or create a PR with the spec changes.

But i am not part of the aries team.
