Konrad Windszus created FELIX-5100:
--------------------------------------
Summary: PackageAdmin WebConsole tab "Dependency Finder" always
exposes the first maven dependency found in the bundle
Key: FELIX-5100
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5100
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Web Console
Affects Versions: webconsole-packageadmin-plugin 1.0.2
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
Priority: Minor
To look up which maven dependency can be used for a certain package, the Maven
GAV information is extracted from the first "pom.properties" within
"META-INF/maven" of that bundle
(https://github.com/apache/felix/blob/trunk/webconsole-plugins/packageadmin/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/webconsole/plugins/packageadmin/internal/WebConsolePlugin.java#L280)
That does
a) only work for bundles which have been created with the maven-bundle-plugin
b) only work in case the bundle does not embed other things
For example if you deploy
httpcore-osgi
(https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/httpcomponents/httpcore-osgi/4.4.4/httpcore-osgi-4.4.4.pom)
which embeds two JARsthe the "pom.properties" of one embedded jar
(httpcore-nio) is found first in the bundle whenever you look for any package
being exported by the bundle, e.g. "org.apache.http".
That algorithm should be more robust by additionally checking for the packaging
"bundle" in the according "pom.xml" in case there are multiple "pom.properties"
found!
