Karl Pauls commented on FELIX-5913:
-----------------------------------
[~tom.phinneyri...@gmail.com], I had a look at our PR and I think it is going
into the right direction.
However, I think it is somewhat problematic that we can not be the classloader
itself. That will make certain things not work like e.g. the BundleReference
and lazy activation. Furthermore, we are making assumptions about being the
classloader in some other parts of the framework which might be problematic.
After thinking about it some more, I might have found a solution to that
problem. I created a POC based on your work that adds a fake
dalvik.PathClassLoader class (in order to compile without dependencies on
android) and use that to extend it in a new BundleClassLoaderDalvik.
I created a branch that you should be able to checkout/fork here:
https://github.com/karlpauls/felix/tree/android
and a PR (in case you prefer a diff): https://github.com/karlpauls/felix/pull/2
Could you test the POC on Android and see if it works (or if not, see if you
could massage it to work)?

> Key: FELIX-5913
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5913
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: Framework
> Affects Versions: framework-6.0.0, framework-6.0.1
> Reporter: Tom Rutchik
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: BundleWiringImpl.java,
> FelixAndroidSupportImplementationNotes.pdf
>
> Original Estimate: 3h
> Remaining Estimate: 3h
>
> The lastest 6.0.0 and 6.0.1 release no longer works on Android.
> The code form the 5.6.10 version necessary to make it work was not ported
> into these versions.
> Some code needs to be added to the class BundleWiringImpl class to allow for
> android support. All of the code necessary to due that can be found in the
> 5.6.10 version.
> I've added the code and have tested it and it's working fine again. I've
> attached an implementation of BundleWiringImpl that works with android. It's
> basically the 6.0.1 implementation with the extra code from 5.6.10. You
> should be able to do a file diff on the 6.0.1 to see where I had to add the
> missing code.
