FYI
Is it worth to switch to the latest maven-bundle-plugin?
Does it solves any problems we have?
Regards
Felix

The Apache Felix team is pleased to announce the release of
maven-bundle-plugin 2.0.0
This release uses the latest bndlib (0.0.311) which requires you to build
with a Java5 JDK.
You can continue to target earlier JVMs while building with a Java5 or later
JDK by setting
the source and target levels in the maven-compiler-plugin configuration.
Here is the list of issues fixed in this release:

A quick bundle example using the classic Maven quickstart project:
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app
# edit the pom.xml, change packaging from jar to bundle and add:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</ groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0</version>
<extensions>true</extensions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
mvn clean install # you should now have a valid OSGi bundle
