Quarkus CXF 2.7.0 release notes

Following the Java baseline upgrade in Quarkus, Quarkus CXF now also requires Java 17 or newer to build and run your applications.

The quarkus-cxf-rt-ws-rm extension is rather old, but was missing a proper test and documentation. Both was added in this release and thus the extension status could be promoted from experimental to stable.

Check the following resources:

Similarly, the Metrics Feature's support status is now stable, after we have improved the Usage guide and added some Configuration options.

There is a new OpenTelemetry extension. It currently supports only tracing. OpenTelemetry Metrics and Logging and not implemented yet.

When you start Quarkus in dev mode using mvn quarkus:dev then you can find the DevUI at http://localhost:8080/q/dev-ui. There are now separate cards listing CXF clients and services.

Here is a screenshot of the Service endpoints card:

See quarkus.cxf.client."client-name".schema-validation.enabled-for

Quarkus CXF now sends the username and password when getting the WSDL document, as long as quarkus.cxf.client."client-name".secure-wsdl-access is true.
