While verifying the contents of the Tuscany SCA 1.6.1 binary distribution I found a few Tuscany modules that are present in the modules directory and are included in the tuscany-sca-all bundle jar, but aren't included in tuscany-sca-manifest.jar. Here's the list: tuscany-tracing-aspectj tuscany-binding-gdata tuscany-binding-gdata-runtime tuscany-databinding-xmlbeans tuscany-policy-security-jsr250
Some of these modules have non-Tuscany dependencies that are present in the lib directory but aren't included in tuscany-sca-manifest.jar. This would require users to add these dependencies to their classpath (when needed), because tuscany-sca-manifest.jar won't bring them in automatically. These dependencies are: aspectjlib-1.6.2.jar aspectjrt-1.6.2.jar gdata-client-1.0.jar gdata-client-meta-1.0.jar gdata-core-1.0.jar gdata-media-1.0.jar My assumption is that these differences are accidental and all the above should be added to tuscany-sca-manifest.jar. If there's a reason why any of these shouldn't be included in tuscany-sca-manifest.jar, please let me know. Simon
