RE: adding osgi dependency logic to m2
I know that M2 has a transitive dependency walker built into it, but it sounds like what you are proposing is for M2's dependency walker to be pluggable; i.e. users can optionally plug in a different dependency resolution algorithm. Am I correct? -Original Message- From: Brett Porter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 06, 2005 9:10 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: adding osgi dependency logic to m2 I've very briefly spoken to a couple of people about the feasibility of this.

We think there are 2 possible ways of achieving this: 1) adding a custom dependency type osgi, that respects osgi rules during dependency resolution. 2) plug in an osgi classloader (eclipse has this component already) into m2. Can anyone comment on the feasibility of these options?

RE: [m2] Dependencies as resources
-Original Message- From: Brett Porter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 12, 2005 10:15 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: [m2] Dependencies as resources There aren't custom scopes (the war plugin doesn't do anything except use the standard ones). If you only want to include a couple of them, you can specify their id's in your plugin's configuration. Wouldn't you be including everything that gets an appropriate manifest entry? So you should already know what they are. Ah, yes. Good idea. The full jar name would be included in the Bundle-ClassPath manifest entry. Then, it's just a matter of parsing the artifactId and version number from the filename(s) specified in the manifest entry, and then using them in the same way the war goal does for including dependencies in the war target. Should be fairly easy. I imagine there might already be some maven utility class(es) for parsing the artifactId out of a full jar filename, perhaps? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I saw this going the other way - constructing
Bundle-ClassPath with the information from the POM that you
also include in the JAR.
Absolutely. That is, when my osgi plugin actually has the code to
create manifest entries from POM configuration tags. :) It's time I got
busy adding this functionality.
Currently, it only merges an existing manifest file with the maven
generated one -- thus the reason for the parsing of the manifest entry.
If you are going this way, however, iterate
${project.artifacts}, looking for instances of
${artifactId}-${version}.jar being in the file list.
Thanks. Will post more if I have questions along the way.

Subject: Re: [M2] Manifest.mf
I'd be interested to see what you are doing here, and whether
an osgi-bundle plugin could be created to assist in this.
Sure... Here's an example of my Ant JAR target:
target name=jar depends=compile
jar manifest=${src.dir}/tutorial/example2/manifest.mf
jarfile=${bundle.dir}/${bundle.name}.jar
basedir=${output.dir}
include name=**/
/jar
/target
Basically, I've got a manifest.mf file in the source tree of my osgi
bundle, which happens to look something like this:
Bundle-Activator: tutorial.example6.Activator
Import-Package: tutorial.example5.service
Bundle-Name: Spell Check Client
Bundle-Description: A bundle that uses the spell check service
Bundle-Vendor: Some Vendor Name
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0
The Ant task *merges* my custom manifest with some tool generated
manifest entries and produces a manifest file in the jar's /meta-inf
directory that looks like this:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.1
Created-By: 1.5.0_03-b07 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Bundle-Activator: tutorial.example2.Activator
Export-Package: tutorial.example2.service
Bundle-Name: English Dictionary
Bundle-Description: A bundle that registers an English dictionary
service
Bundle-Vendor: Some Vendor Name
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0
Unfortunately the JAR plugin documentation does not yet go
deep enough into the manifest element, but it's fields are seen here:
http://maven.apache.org/maven2/plugins/maven-jar-plugin/jar-mojo.html
archive is:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/components/trunk/maven-a
rchiver/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/archiver/MavenArchiveConfiguratio
n.java
manifest in there is:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/components/trunk/maven-a
rchiver/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/archiver/ManifestConfiguration.ja
va
though you can add your own manifestFile instead of a
manifest element.
I'll check into these resources. Worst case, I guess I try out
Maven-2's new plug-in development interface. I suppose it would be nice
to just include a manifest file in the POM's
buildresources/resources/build nodes, so that M2 would
automatically include a custom manifest that I specify in the JAR just
like I can tell maven to include other resources like property and XML
files.
