Yeah what he said.
And in older versions I was using a link report as a manifest that the
bundle service would scan to find out if it needed to actually active
the bundle, IE load the classes.
The is straight from Eclipse in an environment of plugins that could
easily have collisions and version number conflicts.
I only wanted to start this adventure if other people knew where I was
coming from, having to explain why you would want to create a bundle
registry and extension registry is beyond the scope of having to
convince people.
Either you have worked with a system like this or have used things
such as Parsley or something which I haven't used.
The purpose of this was to see if any one was interested in a
standardization that went along with some of the OSGi standards and
left out application frameworks.

Quoting Rick Winscot <[email protected]>:
What is a registry system good for? Consider this... an application
has loaded two modules and a request is made via reflection for
class "Foo" ( think 'Class.forName()' in Java ).
Module A: contains class Foo
package plugins {
public class Foo() {
public function get bar1():String { return "bar1"; }
}
}
Module B: contains class Foo
package plugins {
public class Foo() {
public function get bar2():String { return "bar2"; }
}
}
Which gets loaded? Which one gets executed when instantiated? In
Flash / Flex this is going to be a problem... if each of these
modules is part of a 'bundle' the problem is solved.

I used to build multi-modules applications using parsley, I won't
describe here what each module stands for but shortly, my shell
loads my main module which loads my modular workspaces, I can even
split my workspaces in components, I've librayries, one of them
serves interfaces, an other one domain objects, etc.., because I
use parsley, all the instanciation process is DI, the communication
is also managed thru parsley.
I mean, I can do the same thing than Gavity does without all xml
files it requires for example.
Then, maybe I missed something you can explained to me, what is the
point here ?
