Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] lassNotFoundException: com.sun.mail.util.PropUtil when using javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress
|
Your expectations are wrong.
You need a complete functional implementation of the API.
There's nothing that prevents an API from being implemented by using any
number of non-public, implementation-specific classes. For example, parsing
of internet email addresses could be implemented by using a separate internet
address parser class, perhaps provided by a different project, but exposed to
users through the javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress class.
In such a case, all of the implementation classes would be hidden from an
application that only wanted to see the standard javax.mail classes, e.g.,
because it was compiling against the API jar file.
But you're not just compiling against the API classes. You need the API
classes to be functional. You need a complete implementation, without
knowing the details of how it is implemented.
