Grzegorz Grzybek commented on CXF-9086:
---------------------------------------
Writing from top of my head (just got back from PTO and I have quite a lot of
outstanding tasks):
* I will be happy to provide
{{org.apache.cxf.transport.http.osgi.ServletExporter}} equivalent based on OSGi
CMPN Whiteboard (only OSGi Core API needed to register services) and tested
using Pax web and/or Felix HTTP (as this is now not that important as before)
* OSGi metadata (MANIFEST.MF) can be generated as before using Felix'
maven-bundle-plugin, but defaults are never good, so it'd require a bit of
tweaking
* CXF had OSGi Blueprint namespace handlers, but I'm not sure this should be
brought back, as OSGi Blueprint is faaaaaar from being active (it's working
quite like it was working 10 years ago)
* CXF 3 registered ManagedService (ConfigAdmin) for:
** {{org.apache.cxf.http.jetty}} PID
** {{org.apache.cxf.osgi}} PID
** {{org.apache.cxf.http.conduits}} factory PID
** {{org.apache.cxf.workqueues}} factory PID
* CXF 3 was tracking these services:
** {{org.osgi.service.cm.ConfigurationAdmin}}
** {{org.osgi.service.http.HttpService}}
** {{org.apache.cxf.Bus}} - for blueprint probably
** {{javax.management.MBeanServer}} - probably in Karaf, where this is quite
important
** some unknown service in
{{org.apache.cxf.xkms.service.CertificateRepoProxyFactory}}
So if there was a need for a roadmap, then I'd suggest:
# bring back OSGi manifest headers - unaffecting code, only POMs
# register CXF servlet as Whiteboard service, to be tracked by Pax Web 11 /
Felix HTTP Jetty 12
# bring back _real_ OSGi support by correctly tracking instances of
configurable services - interceptors, conduits, busses, ...
