>             Project: Felix
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Dependency Manager
>            Reporter: Arjun Panday
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: org.apache.felix.dependencymanager-r1

>
> DependencyManager has a ComponentDeclaration and 
> ComponentDependencyDeclaration interface to get information about the 
> components it manages, but these interfaces don't have a explicit access to 
> the implementation class, the exposed interfaces or the dependency filter.
> For now, one can only parse Component.toString to find the services and 
> implementation (assuming the implementation doesn't override its toString 
> method), and parse ComponentDependencyDeclaration.getName to find the 
> requested service and filter. This kind of parsing is naturally very unsafe 
> and dependent on the implementation details.
> I suggest to add the following methods:
> ComponentDeclaration.getImplementation should return the implementation class 
> name
> ComponentDeclaration.getServices should return a list of interfaces declared 
> by the component
> ComponentDependencyDeclaration.getService should return the requested service 
> name (interface)
> ComponentDependencyDeclaration.getFilter should return the associated filter
> Although minor, these changes would be very useful. (My immediate need is for 
> the improvement of the service diagnostics webconsole plugin)
