Marcel Offermans commented on FELIX-648:
----------------------------------------
Karl actually has an implementation of PA and CPA (and I helped out a bit).
This is done as a framework extension, so you can simply plug it in. When you
do that, the packages are made available too. I would prefer that you simply
provide those packages yourself instead of adding them to the framework, or
rewrite your bundle to detect if PA/CPA are present without actually having to
import them (as an example of that, look at the core framework and how it
"discovers" a log service in that way).

> Key: FELIX-648
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-648
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Framework
> Reporter: Alin Dreghiciu
> Priority: Trivial
>
> As org.osgi.service.permissionadmin and condpermadmin package is part of core
> OSGi spec I'm thinking that the system bundle of Felix should also export
> those packages even if there is no actual service implementation of those
> services.
> As an use case I have some bundles that import those packages (non optional)
> but those bundles could function if actual services are not present.
> In order to this on the current code base is just a matter of changing the
> maven bundle plugin <Export-Package> to include this packages while building
> the framework bundle and add them to the property
> "org.osgi.framework.system.packages" in main/conf.properties. I can provide a
> patch if required.
> As comparison, Equinox/Knopflerfish use the same approach. Export the
> packages but do not actually implement the service and I guess that Felix
> does not do that as there are no implementations of this services built in
> into framework. I guess that the other implementations provide those packages
> as they export all the packages from osgi core spec.
