add switch to prevent classifier being appended to Bundle-Version
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-543
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-543
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Maven Bundle Plugin
            Reporter: Derek Baum
            Priority: Minor


I have a use-case for using classifier to create multiple bundles with 
different symbolic names but the same Bundle-Version.

This is not currently possible, as the maven-bundle-plugin automatically 
appends the classifier to the Bundle-Version.

Could some switch be added, to disable the appending of classifier to 
Bundle-Version?

Thanks,

Derek

wanted to produce JDK5 and JDK1.4 versions of the _same_ bundle, so
because the symbolic name would be the same, the classifier must then
be added to the version to distinguish them.

it is the intended behaviour for the above use-case, but we could add a switch
to turn it off - it's difficult to detect whether the classifier should be 
added to the
version automatically, because each bundling process is run in isolation

there's also no way to distinguish where the bundle version came from in Maven
(ie. general config or specific to the classifier) once it reaches the 
bundleplugin,
so a new switch is the only safe way to detect the different use-case...
