Description

My build pipeline is broken since Servoy 2025.09 and after we needed jakarta related upgrades to our own plugins
Everything works fine unless I include the velocity files, then this error shows :

History

#1

Updated by Patrick Talbot 2 months ago

Yes, I'm aware of the issue with the changes of the javax.servlet package into jakarta.servlet and will release a new version very soon.

There will be a need for 2 different zip packages for the plugin though, because most people are still (and will be for a while) on Servoy < 2025.09 and Tomcat < 10 and I can't just break backward compatibility like that.

I'm preparing a v4.0 at the moment, and along with the regular distribution, I will prepare a packaged distribution for this jakarta related change.
