Hi all, Recently a problem occurred with handling the immediate attribute of component declarations for component factories. This caused the inability to run the Apache Sling Embedded Jackrabbit Repository Bundle to be usable with the Equinox Declarative Services implementation.
It turned out ([1]) that our Declarative Services implementation was incorrect, in that the immediate attribute was expected to be true and not allowed to be false for component factories. It turns out that the opposite is true: for component factorties the immediate attribute defaults to false and false is the only valid value if explicitly declared. Hence I created FELIX-593 [2] and fixed our implementation. As of Rev. 662680 in trunk and the latest SNAPSHOT version 1.0.1-20080603.075917-4 this fix is now in action. The fix will also be included in the next release of the Declarative Services bundle. The consequence of this change is, that and existing component factory components will not work any more if the immediate attribute of the component element is set to true. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. But I think the inconvenience to not be able to use component factories in whatever Declarative Services implementation available is even worse.
