Add OSGi manifest entries to Tuscany modules --------------------------------------------
Key: TUSCANY-2294 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-2294 Project: Tuscany Issue Type: Bug Components: Java SCA OSGi Integration Affects Versions: Java-SCA-1.2 Reporter: Rajini Sivaram Assignee: Rajini Sivaram Fix For: Java-SCA-Next Details on the discussion on adding manifest entries to Tuscany modules are on this thread: http://marc.info/?l=tuscany-dev&m=120936893510825&w=2. Modules will continue to be built as jars, and maven-bundle-plugin will be used to generate the jar manifest (with OSGi headers). This will not have any impact on the normal usage of the jars outside OSGi. Each module pom.xml will contain an entry that looks like: <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId> <artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <instructions> <Bundle-Version>${tuscany.version}</Bundle-Version> <Bundle-SymbolicName>org.apache.tuscany.sca.assembly</Bundle-SymbolicName> <Bundle-Description>${pom.name}</Bundle-Description> <Export-Package>org.apache.tuscany.sca.assembly*</Export-Package> </instructions> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> If the module dynamically loads classes from packages which are not visible to the module (and yes, we do this in some places), there should also be an additional <DynamicImport-Package/> entry which lists the packages (packages can be wildcarded). When a new module is added, the section above (which is from modules/assembly) can be cut-and-paste with the following changes: 1) <Bundle-SymbolicName/> should be unique across all modules, and use the format org.apache.tuscany.sca.<module.name> 2) <Export-Package/> Comma separated list of packages exported by the module. Package name can be wildcarded. To start with, all modules will use wildcarded package names to avoid breakage when new subpackages are added. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
