Hi!
I fooled around digging into OSGi container internals, maven plugins, etc for 2
hours to find a small issue in our pom finally :)
in myfaces-api we define the following
<Require-Bundle>org.apache.myfaces.core.impl;bundle-version="${project.version}"</Require-Bundle>
Now, while trying to install this bundle to geronimo-3 for building an updated
geronimo-myfaces plugin, I always crashed with a NumberFormatException.
This has the following reason:
An OSGi version consiste of [a].[n].[b].[q] always separeted by a dot.
a..mAjor number
n..miNor number
b..Build number
q..Qualifier
a,n,b _must_ be numeric
q might be alphanumeric
In our myfaces-api/pom.xml we have the following maven-bundle-plugin
configuration:
Because of using ${project.version} in the <Require-Bundle>, we get the
following version written to our manifest: 2.0.1-SNAPSHOT, which is an invalid
OSGi version. A valid one would be 2.0.1.SNAPSHOT (dot instead of -)
I'm not sure how we should cope with this in the future though...
LieGrue,
