Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-463:
-----------------------------------------
Hmm, as m_bootPkgs also contains the java.* specification but step 1 of the
resolution process says to abort in case a java.* class cannot be loaded from
the parent class loader, this patch would actually try to load java.* classes
from within....
So probably, the exception handler should check whether the class (or package)
is from java.* and fail if so, otherwise continue.
WDYT ?

> Section #3.8.4, Overall Search Order, of OSGi Service Platform Release 4 spec
> does not clearly (or I don't understand it well enough) state what should be
> the behavior. Relevant portions of the spec is given below:
> /1 If the class or resource is in a java.* package, the request is delegated
> to the parent class loader; otherwise, the search continues with the next
> step. If the request is delegated to the parent class loader and the class or
> resource is not found, then the search terminates and the request fails.
> 2 If the class or resource is from a package included in the boot delegation
> list (org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation), then the request is delegated to
> the parent class loader. If the class or resource is found there, the search
> ends.
> /
> Unlike point #1 above, point #2 does not mandate the search to terminate. I
> can understand the search terminating for java.* packages, but why for other
> packages? It seems Felix is terminating the search, therefore I am seeing
> this failure. Can anyone please clarify this? I am using "*, " because I want
> to see how I can make packages from some library jars available to bundles
> without having to set org.osgi.framework.system.packages property?
> I am hoping that if I add my library jars in system classpath and set
> bootdelegation="*", the library jar's content will be automatically available
> to other bundles even if I don't set org.osgi.framework.system.packages
> property. Is this not going to work?
> Thanks,
