Should plugins be packed jar files or exploded?
-----------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-4912
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4912
Project: Geronimo
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: osgi
Affects Versions: 3.0
Reporter: David Jencks
Currently the osgi framework only works with plugins packed as jar files, not
exploded jar files like the regular geronimo server. Since osgi can deal with
classpaths inside a jar file, I rather think that we should proceed with this
as standard practice for the rest of the server. However this will mean moving
the archiving functionality out of the car-maven-plugin and into the deployer.
The alternative is to make sure that unpacked plugins actually work in osgi. I
didn't experiment with this at all.
