AC Compatibility with Spring Boot 3

Jira Development Jira Cloud

I’m trying to use your Atlassian Connect Java framework 3.0.2 together with the latest version of atlassian-connect-spring-boot-starter, which at the time of writing is also 3.0.2.

However, upon application launch, the following exception is thrown:

Spring Boot 3 moved from JEE (javax.) to Jakarta EE 9 (jakarta.), but your library still seems to rely on JEE. Please advise.

Dear @divineengineering

I assume @epehrson can provide more details on the time plan. From what I saw in the commits they are working on it but compatibility with Spring 3 is not yet there.

Best regards

Andreas

Hi @andreas1 @divineengineering, thanks for reaching out!

Yes, we did a spike on Atlassian Connect Spring Boot(ACSB)'s upgrade with SpringBoot 3.0, and currently we are planning for this upgrade. More detailed comms will be posted shortly after we work out a timeline : )

Cheers,
Min

That sounds excellent, thank you! Maybe you could state that in the documentation as well, I spent quite a few hours trying to get it to work together.

Thank you for your clarification, is it possible to share an estimate for compatibility with spring boot release date
