Answering this assumes knowing the competing ecosystems - I don't. I have been working in the Java ecosystem for over a decade and haven't had the urge to look for greener pastures. Libraries/frameworks that, if they went away, would make me look for a new ecosystem:
- JUnit (Unit testing)
- Mockito (stubbing)
- Selenium
- Spring (mostly for dependency injection, secondly for the many useful adapters)
- Hibernate (I'm off Hibernate now but there were times I couldn't do without it)
- Tomcat
- Cocoon (afaik dead now, but I've written massive applications with it)
- Swing (desktop apps used to be a thing when I was young)
