Incompatibility to AXIOM 1.3.x+ (Update AXIOM dependency to 1.3.x/1.4.x)

[markieww]

I was trying to use spring-ws 3.1.3 with axiom 1.4.0.

But at runtime there was java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/axiom/soap/impl/builder/StAXSOAPModelBuilder

So did some analyses.

spring-ws still uses axiom 1.2.20 (pom.xml of spring-ws)
axiom 1.3.0 is available since 1 Jul 2021 (git-tag)
axiom 1.4.0 is available since 14 May 2022 (git-tag)

Since axiom 1.3.0 the StAXSOAPModelBuilder has been removed regarding their release notes

The builder implementations and related classes have been removed from the org.apache.axiom.om.impl.builder and org.apache.axiom.soap.impl.builder packages. This includes the StAXBuilder, StAXOMBuilder, XOPAwareStAXOMBuilder, StAXSOAPModelBuilder and MTOMStAXSOAPModelBuilder classes.

If you add the axiom-compat JAR to the classpath, then you should be able to use the most recent Axiom version with Spring WS 3.1.3.
