Could not get the CoT Adapter to build, import into GeoEvent, or successfully allow data stream throughput.
Originally, it referenced codehaus.jackson; however, codehaus.jackson is no longer supported or maintained. Fasterxml.jackson is the current replacement for codehaus.
Needed an adapter updated for and currently compatible with GeoEvent Server 10.8.1
TL;DR of Changes
Replaced the outdated code pieces in the java builder files.
Dependencies needed in the main pom to successfully build the adapter (specifically the fasterxml dependency and the javax dependency).
Additionally, versions of other dependencies and components were updated.
