+1 from me, it seems a useful and harmless thing to do.

Thanks for that explanation Mike. Not knowing much of OSGi, I was
trying to be a bit conservative. Now convinced, here is my +1 for
this inclusion.

Hello,
Could we convert sca-api.jar to an OSGi bundle so that bundles used by the
OSGi implementation type can import SCA annotations and interfaces? This may
be already being addressed in the other OSGi related work, but the change is
simple and will enable the support for SCA annotations in
Hi,
This seems ok since you say it does not have side effects for other
consumers. However, I wonder if we can keep doing this for accomodating
other runtimes as well - am not sure what the others might want or if they'd
need something not as simple as this - just postulating here ;-). Or,
Venkat,
I understand your concern about adding other runtime-specific information
into SCA. But since we would like to allow OSGi bundles used in SCA using
implementation.osgi/ to be also deployed outside of SCA in an OSGi runtime,
we have to provide an OSGi bundle containing the SCA annotation
Could we do something like we do for tuscany-sca-manifest.jar,
which is a small jar with no code whose MANIFEST.MF contains a
Class-Path tag pulling in the other jars that make up the
Tuscany runtime? Can an OSGi-enabled jar be used as a
front end to a regular jar in this way?

Simon,
There is some discussion on allowing OSGi bundles to refer to external jar
files in the Bundle-ClassPath. But as far I know, that is not part of the
OSGi spec yet, and Bundle-ClassPath can only refer to embedded directories
and jar files at the moment.
Thank you...

Venkat,
I'm in favour of adding OSGi metadata to relevant jars to enable them to
act as OSGi bundles. I think that OSGi is in a different space than
other runtimes and that supporting it is a good idea.
