Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-3733:
------------------------------------------
Implemented an interim solution in Rev. 1401851: The icon path is first check
whether it addresses an entry in the bundle. If not, it is resolved using the
metatype descriptor file's URL as the base URL.
This lets the implementation pass the respective OSGi CT tests.
> Clarify icon location

> Key: FELIX-3733
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3733
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Metatype Service, Specification compliance
> Affects Versions: metatype-1.0.4
> Reporter: Felix Meschberger
> Assignee: Felix Meschberger
> Fix For: metatype-1.0.6
>
>
> The Metatype Service specification states for the location value of the icon
> element (Table 105.1 in section 105.7.1):
> The resource is a URL. The base URL is assumed to be the XML file
> with the definition. I.e. if the XML is a resource in the JAR file, then
> this
> URL can reference another resource in that JAR file using a relative URL.
> Our current implementation takes this definition and uses the XML resource
> URL as the base URL to create the Icon URL.
> For example: If the icon resource path is "icon/sample.png" and the XML
> resource URL is "file://bundle-5/OSGI-INF/metatype/sample.xml" then the icon
> resource URL would be assumed to be
> "file://bundle-5/OSGI-INF/icon/sample.png".
> In contrast the current OSGi CT work-in-progress expects the URL to be
> relative to the defining bundle.
> It must be clarified which reading is correct.
