Use Microprofile BOM/POM

[keilw]

See #35
This applied the 1.0.0 BOM

@kwsutter Was there an issue with this preventing to merge it?

@jclingan @kwsutter What exactly is blocking the use of an already published BOM?
If they no longer reflect the current developments in projects and features, those vendor-neutral samples become pretty irrelevant and every vendor does their own things. Maybe that's the idea, can't tell, but if not, it would be great if they reflect the 1.0 BOM which was published in April before a 1.1 BOM or POMs eventually come out first. http://microprofile.io/projects also points to this project, in fact it is one of the first, so people see it when they visit the site.

With MicroProfle 1.2 out now, is it possible to use the dependency as written in the main pdf on http://microprofile.io/:

<dependency> <groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile</groupId> <artifactId>microprofile</artifactId> <version>1.2</version> <type>pom</type> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency>
?

Could do, but it is extremely sad having missed a proper release cycle under https://github.com/eclipse/microprofile-samples/releases for 1.1.

Do you want to skip it and go right to 1.2 or do 1.1 properly first and then upgrade these samples?

I prefer the app does not implement the spi but use application server's implementation, e.g. Open Liberty etc. Application should only provide the HealthCheckResponse. One of the benefits of MP programming model is to make app development a lot easier.

I don't think you want this either according to what @Emily-Jiang wrote, but rather just provide an @Health method as e.g. shown in https://github.com/pilhuhn/microprofile-demo/blob/master/src/main/java/de/bsd/microprofiledemo/rest/HealthDemo.java#L29-L37

The above example looks vendor-neutral as opposed to what @Emily-Jiang suggested sounded a bit more like abandoning a vendor-neutral Eclipse example altogether in favor of examples by OpenLiberty, Wildfly, Kumuluz, etc. ?;-O

I'm closing this now, MP 1.3 has already been out. I think it would be about time, the samples match some release, otherwise they become outdated and useless.
