Specification auto import is not supported for simple component types
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-876
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-876
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: iPOJO-1.0.0
Environment: JOnAS 5.1
Reporter: Guillaume Sauthier
'specification' attributes denotes an interface that needs to be imported (at
least its package) in order to allow iPOJO to load the interface.
When you're writing components based on abstract classes, sometimes you ends up
with declaring service dependencies for the component that, in fact, belongs to
the super class.
If the package used for the dependency's specification is never used in your
bundle (containing the concrete class), then you have to manually add an
Import-Package.
This is error prone.
iPOJO could check the packages of specifications and auto generate
Import-Package for them (if required), just like what's already done for
composite components.
