Nested child configurations from ears don't work well with osgi

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4972
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: deployment, osgi
    Affects Versions: 3.0
            Reporter: David Jencks

             Fix For: 3.0


Right now we are generating "nested bundles" inside plugins for ear files with 
web modules.  These don't quite work.  One code problem is that the 
SimpleConifgurationManager tries to start the child bundles before the 
configuration for the parent/containing bundle is registered, so a 
getConfiguration call to find the parent config fails.  This is probably easy 
to fix.

However a bigger issue is that there's no way to tell the osgi framework about 
the nested bundle.  Three possible solutions:

1. stop having nested bundles, just use one bundle per ear.  This is a 1-line 
change  in AbstractWebModuleBuilder so I expect to use this until we can 
actually solve the problem

2. modify the pax mvn url handler to deal with urls to nested bundles inside 
the car.

3. modify the ear deployer to create more than one bundle from an ear.
