Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-650:
---------------------------------------
I will look into this patch when I look into your other patch, later this week.
Thanks for the feedback.
> Bundle-SymbolicName not handled correctly when header contains parameters

> The OSGi specs mandates that syntax for Bundle-Symbolicname is:
> Bundle-SymbolicName ::= symbolic-name ( ';' parameter ) *
> meaning that you can add parameters to symbolic name as for example
> singleton:=true.
> Let's use the following as an example:
> Bundle-SymbolicName: org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn; singleton:=true
> If I use such an parameter the bundle symbolic name returned by Felix
> Bundle.getSymbolicName will be inclusive the parameters which is not correct.
> In the example above the returned value will be org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn;
> singleton:=true.
> The problem is that some places in Felix lookup the symbolic name using a
> pattern like:
> ((FelixBundle)
> bundle).getInfo().getCurrentHeader().get(Constants.BUNDLE_SYMBOLICNAME)
> so, searching the headers for symbolic name not the parsed value.
> This had the side effect of being able to install two bundles with same
> symbolic name and version, fact that is prohibited by the specs. Felix has
> the code to verify that you cannot install but the problem is that when
> installing a bundle the symbolic name comparation is doen between the parsed
> symbolic name of the bundle to be installed and the symbolic name of the
> other bundles (already installed) where the symbolic name is determined using
> the pattern above.
> You can see this behavior in the example bellow.
> I wil atach a path that solves this problem by changing the getSymbolicName
> to lookup the symbolic name in the parsed values ("module" ICapability of the
> current IModule) and change all the places that did it's own lookup of the
> symbolic name to use Bundle.getSymbolicName.
> But this is if we do not want an "invasive" change and it may not perform
> well as the lookup is done all the time. A better cleaner/solution would be
> to add symbolic name (and maybe version) to IModuleDefinition (I would say
> but I'm not very aware of Felix implementation internals) and set the values
> while creating the module as the values are already parsed by ManifestParser
> (same place as when the capabilities/requirements are parsed/created).
