Spring 3, Jersey (JSR-311) and Maven dependencies

im currently struggling to integrate a REST Service based on Jersey and Spring. I'm using Spring 3.0.2-RELEASE and jersey-spring 1.2.

But jersey-spring adds a dependency to Spring 2.5.6 to my project which of cause conflicts with the 3.0.2-RELEASE to give me thefollwing error:

11:58:25,409 ERROR org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader:215 - Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Unexpected exception parsing XML document from class path resource [cloverjazz-web-context.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.BeanDefinitionParserDelegate.getLocalName(Lorg/w3c/dom/Node;)Ljava/lang/String;

        at org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener.contextInitialized(ContextLoaderListener.java:45)

Is there a way to get around this issue? Does anyone know?

Thanks!

Own Answer: I simply excluded the dependencies in the pom.xml in the following way. there don't seem to be any incompabilities and everything runs fine so far:

 <dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.jersey.contribs</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-spring</artifactId>
    <version>1.2</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>

I don't know if jersey-spring is compatible with Spring 3.0 but the way to control the versions of artifacts used in transitive dependencies is to use dependencyManagement:

<project>
  ...
  <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>download-java-net</id>
      <url>http://download.java.net/maven/2/</url>
    </repository>
  </repositories>
  <properties>
    <org.springframework.version>3.0.2.RELEASE</org.springframework.version>
  </properties>
  <dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
        <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId>
        <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
        <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
        <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring</artifactId>
        <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
      </dependency>
    </dependencies>
  </dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey.contribs</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-spring</artifactId>
      <version>1.2</version>
      <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
          <artifactId>spring</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
      </exclusions>
    </dependency>
    ...
  </dependencies>
</project>

Note that it's still required to exclude org.springframework:spring:jar:2.5.6 since this dependency doesn't exist in later versions.

Below, the dependency tree you'll get with this setup:

$ mvn dependency:tree

As far as I know they are yet to officially change the jersey-spring maven module to support spring 3.0 instead of 2.5. I also found the following post at nabble forum!
