Hej,
please have a look at the following setup, where the Import-Package
instruction is not calculated in a way I would have expected:
I got two Maven projects X and Y, where X has a dependency to Y. Both
projects are build as bundles, with maven-bundle-plugin (2.3.7) in its
default configuration (just Export-Package is configured to export
everything below the particular package root).
Project X contains an interface A, which extends an interface B which is
located in project Y.
When building project X, the Import-Package section of the generated
MANIFEST does only contain the imports that A defines itself. The
imports defined in the super interface B are not observed.
The result is a NoClassDefFoundError at runtime. The BundleClassLoader
of X is not able to find the types which are imported by interface B in
bundle Y.
What I would have expected is that maven-bundle-plugin does consider all
requirements of those compound types when calculating the Import-Package
instructions of the MANIFEST.
What do you think? Do I have to resolve this dependency manually by
adding explicit <Import-Package> to the pom, or is there a special
'import transitive imports as well'-switch I missed so far?
Any comment is highly appreciated. Regards,
Mirko
