Resolver does not correctly discard export when module imports the same package
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-736
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-736
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Framework, Specification compliance
Affects Versions: felix-1.2.1
Reporter: Richard S. Hall
Assignee: Richard S. Hall
Fix For: felix-1.2.2
If a module both imports and exports the same package, this means the resolver
has a choice to honor either the export or the import of the package. In the
case where the resolve decides to honor the import, then the module's export
for that same package is effectively discarded. Unfortunately, the resolver was
not actually discarding the export in this case, so it is possible that another
module might be wired to the effectively discarded export, even though the
exporting module is importing the package from another provider. This results
in some form of a re-export of the package, which is not spec compliant. We
need to modify the resolver to check for this case.
