Apache CXF 3.3.1 Release Notes
1. Overview
The 3.3.x versions of Apache CXF is a significant new version of CXF
that provides several new features and enhancements.
New features include:
* Support for signing HTTP messages via the HTTP Signature draft spec
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cavage-http-signatures)
in the cxf-rt-rs-security-http-signature module.
* Initial support for Java 11 - CXF has been built and tested with
Java 11. It is not using the Java 11 modules, but it can be built
and the tests pass with Java 11.
* MicroProfile Rest Client v1.2 implementation
Important notes:
CXF 3.3.x no longer supports Java 7. You must upgrade to Java 8 or later.
Users are encouraged to review the migration guide at:
http://cxf.apache.org/docs/33-migration-guide.html
for further information and requirements for upgrading from earlier
versions of CXF.
3.3.1 fixes over 11 JIRA issues reported by users and the community.
2. Installation Prerequisites
Before installing Apache CXF, make sure the following products,
with the specified versions, are installed on your system:
* Java 8 Development Kit
* Apache Maven 3.x to build the samples
3. Integrating CXF Into Your Application
If you use Maven to build your application, you need merely add
appropriate dependencies. See the pom.xml files in the samples.
If you don't use Maven, you'll need to add one or more jars to your
classpath. The file lib/WHICH_JARS should help you decide which
jars you need.
4. Building the Samples

the samples directory and follow the build instructions in the README.txt file
included with each sample.
