Richard: In my case the resolver just fails without being able to resolve so it would probably not make a very good test scenario. Could you elaborate on how the uses constraint could be involved in the symptoms I am seeing? Thanks,

Thanks, > The spec says the resolver should favor already resolved packages over unresolved packages (i.e., resolved packages have higher. However, in this case, if your bundle imports version 3, then it should not be looking at version 0 at all. I would guess that there is a uses constraint causing the issue and it is not related to choosing the wrong version. You can modify the org.osgi.framework.system.packages property to not include org.w3c.dom. It is a little bit of a pain, but if you look inside the felix.jar you will see a default.properties file. If you copy that file and put it into the conf/config.properties file, then you can modify the default values to exclude the offending package. Does your above scenario end up resolving or does it end up detecting constraint violations for a long time or just error and not resolve? If it does take a long time, I'd be interested in being able to re-create it, since I am working on a new resolver which is intended to address such issues and it would be nice to have another test scenario. -> richard > David > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
