Hi everyone;

I'm using Felix framework 4.0.2 and jdk 1.6.0-OpenSCG-Build-24, and I have
a problem with a legacy bundle from our product, which tries to load the
following JDK 1.6 packages using DynamicImport-Package: *:

org.w3c.dom.traversal
org.w3c.dom.ranges

(I know it is a bad practice to use such dynamic import but I can't modify
this old bundle ...)

So, everything was working fine until fwk 3.2.2, but since fwk 4.0.0, I
then have the following CNF:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: *** Package 'org.w3c.dom.traversal' is
not imported by bundle com.alcatel.as.legacybundle [67], nor is there any
bundle that exports package 'org.w3c.dom.traversal'. However, the class
'org.w3c.dom.traversal.DocumentTraversal' is available from the system
class loader. There are two fixes: 1) Add package 'org.w3c.dom.traversal'
to the 'org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra' property and modify
bundle com.alcatel.as.legacybundle [67] to import this package; this causes
the system bundle to export class path packages. 2) Add package
'org.w3c.dom.traversal' to the 'org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation'
property; a library or VM bug can cause classes to be loaded by the wrong
class loader. The first approach is preferable for preserving modularity.
***

So, after investigation, it seems that these two packages are not
reexported anymore by system bundle since fwk 4.0.0 version; and I wonder
if this is intentional, or may be it's a regression ?

-> see default.properties from fwk 3.2.2: this file contains the list of
reexported jdk packages, including my two packages:

jre-1.6=, \
 ...
 org.w3c.dom.ranges; \
 org.w3c.dom.stylesheets; \
 org.w3c.dom.traversal; \
 ...

But since fwk 4.0.0, the two packages are not present anymore; however the
org.w3c.dom.traversal package is yet referenced in some "uses" clauses:

 
org.w3c.dom.ls;uses:="org.w3c.dom,org.w3c.dom.events,org.w3c.dom.traversal";version="0.0.0.1_006_JavaSE",
\

So; should I create a jira issue, or are these two packages considered as
internal jdk packages (not to be reexported) ?

thanks, and kind regards;
