| Apache Axis2 1.8.0 Release Note |
| ------------------------------- |
| |
| * The minimum required Java version for Axis2 has been changed to Java 7. |
| |
| * The Apache Commons HttpClient 3.x based HTTP transport has been deprecated. |
| If you wish to continue using this transport, add `axis2-transport-http-hc3` |
| to your project. |
| |
| * The HTTPClient 4.x based transport has been upgraded to use the APIs supported |
| by the latest HTTPClient version. |
| |
| * To improve dependency management, the data binding JARs have been split to |
| separate the code required at build time from the code required at runtime: |
| * `axis2-jibx` has been split into `axis2-jibx` and `axis2-jibx-codegen`. |
| * `axis2-xmlbeans` has been split into `axis2-xmlbeans` and |
| `axis2-xmlbeans-codegen`. |
| * `axis2-jaxbri` has been renamed to `axis2-jaxbri` (The JAXB-RI data |
| binding doesn't require any additional classes at runtime). |
| * There are no changes for ADB because the code was already split in |
| previous Axis2 versions. |
