Spring Web necessary?

[peatar]

Hi,

I recognized that there is a dependency to spring web (from springrc core).
When is this library mandatory? My application seems to run fine without it.

Probably for the HTTP remoting part inside the core, although it has been superceded by the remoting possibities in Spring nowadays. I'll have a peek.

Thanks a lot!

Is the chance high that there are more unnecessary jars included? See the attached dep graph (generated with netbeans)

Recently I ran the depgraph plugin (slightly modified) on the spring richclient trunk to visualize the dependencies. Attached you'll find the dependencies for the core as they are today, and the dependencies for the entire trunk.
Legend for the colors: green=compile, red=test, blue=provided, yellow=runtime.

edit: the forum resizes the images, rendering them useless... I'll see if I can put them on the main site somewhere.

Ok. Keep me updated :-)
