Richard S. Hall closed FELIX-1300.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
I have committed this change. For people who really do not want to create new
cache's, we could look into creating a script that renames the embedded/
directory in bundleX/versionY.0/ to bundle.jar-embedded/.
> Remove legacy bundle cache support when extracting embedded JAR files

> Key: FELIX-1300
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1300
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Framework
> Affects Versions: felix-1.8.1
> Reporter: Richard S. Hall
> Assignee: Richard S. Hall
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: felix-2.0.0
>
>
> A while ago we modified IContent so we could use that interface to extract
> JAR files, which was necessary for fragment support where we needed to be
> able to access embedded content to construct the host class path. The
> approach is actually more powerful than what is necessary, since we allow JAR
> files to be extracted from embedded JAR files and JAR files embedded in the
> embedded JAR files to be extracted and so. As a result of this, you can end
> up with situation where embedded JAR files in different embedded JAR files
> may have the same name, so to avoid name clashes, we extract embedded JAR
> files into a directory named after the bundle. This was problematic at the
> top-level, since it would not be backwards compatible with existing caches.
> As a result, we special case the top-level and just use the name "embedded"
> for the directly as was done in the past. With the move to 2.0, I want to
> remove this legacy since there isn't much point to keeping it.
