Previously, the documentation included hand-written tables for the
application, production, and technical starters.
This commit replaces the hand-written tables with tables that are
generated automatically from all of the starter poms, thereby ensuring
that the documentation is automatically kept up-to-date as starters
are added and removed. An extra column provided a link to each
starter's pom on GitHub has also been added to the table. This makes
it easier for users to see exactly what each starter contains.
Closes gh-5267
This commit replaces Spring Boot's basic dependency management support
with separate dependency management plugin. This has a number of
benefits including:
1. A Maven bom can be used rather than a custom properties file
2. Dependency management is applied transitively rather than only to
direct dependencies
3. Exclusions are applied as they would be in Maven
4. Gradle-generated poms are automatically configured with the
appropriate dependency management
Closes gh-2133
Mixing Hibernate and a JTA provider may lead to duplicate JTA
dependencies as the API is published with different coordinates.
The following has been applied:
* We now use `javax.transaction:javax.transaction-api` everywhere.
* The `data-jpa` starter has been updated to replace the JBoss JTA
dependency with the standard one.
* The `jta-bitronix` starter has been updated to use JTA 1.2 instead of
JTA 1.1 (unfortunately, JTA 1.1 is published with different
coordinates).
* The `jta-atomikos` starter has been updated to define a dependency on
JTA as the current version does not do it at all.
* The HornetQ JMS server is also relying on JTA but that dependency
should have been optional. It has been excluded for the time being as
it was using (yet) another set of coordinates.
Fixes gh-2092
