Currently we do not do anything. I am considering making a framework extension bundle fragment that adds a bundle classloader that can be used on J2SE 1.5. The problem I have is that the core Equinox framework is compiled against the OSGi EE minimum 1.1 library. I could add a bundle classloader implementation to the core framework that extends the existing bundle classloader and overrides the getResources method. Then at runtime pick the correct implementation of the bundle classloader depending on the level of the EE. But this would force me to compile the core framework against J2SE 1.5. Something I'm not willing to do at this point. For me it is probably better to stick this extra class (compiled against J2SE 1.5) in a framework fragment, then runtime can load that version of the bundle classloader if it is installed and resolved. I would make that fragment bundle have a required EE of J2SE 1.5 so it could not be installed on an older VM.
