Refactor the module abstraction layer to align more closely to OSGi concepts
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-851
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-851
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Framework
Affects Versions: felix-1.4.1
Reporter: Richard S. Hall
Assignee: Richard S. Hall
Fix For: felix-1.6.0
Felix' module layer was created as a general modularity layer abstraction which
is not specific to OSGi concepts. The main idea for doing this was to create a
general modularity layer that could support other modularity approaches. Since
Felix' mandate is to create an OSGi implementation, the generic modularity
layer actually complicates achieving its goal. In an effort to simplify Felix'
implementation, reduce its footprint, and hopefully improve some aspects of
performance, the module layer abstractions should be refactored to align with
OSGi concepts.
