Raymond Augé commented on FELIX-6019:
-------------------------------------
What get's lost here with this whole effective:=active issue is that, when NOT
specified, the default "effective"-ness value is "resolve". That means when you
use any other value for effective you basically turn OFF said requirement
during "normal" resolution.
Now what the spec says about the "osgi.service" namespace is that they are not
required and shouldn't be set to effective:=resolve.
BND folks jumped on an opportunity to provide some deployment assembly feature
and coined the custom effectiveness of "active" (which still meets the spec for
"osgi.service" namespace not being "resolve") AND enabled it to add its own
magic. However this feature was fully under the control of the developer doing
the assembly (you could opt-in, default of Not-opted-in).
So, by making this a runtime feature Karaf has done something non standard but
without giving control to the developer.
