Alin,

I could add a section to the usage document describing how the old properties have become the new properties, would that work?

Thanx for the link Richard. I used the new property for start level.
I still think that an migration path or something as what is changed
between the "legacy" how you named and 1.4.0 will be a real help for
people switching to the new version.

If that's the case, as Stuart mention, can someone provide a list of
what properties are no longer supported or deprecated and which are
the new ones?

Yep, Clement is correct.

We have introduced a new property in 1.3.0 development version (1.4.0
should be officially released soon). These new changes align with a
standard
framework API under consideration by the OSGi Alliance.

Felix will now set a reasonable default value for
org.osgi.framework.system.packages, but you can override the default by
setting this property yourself. If you just want to append to the
default
value, then use org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra, like Clement
described.


quick question: has "felix.startlevel.framework" been deprecated in
favour
of "org.osgi.framework.startlevel" ?
if so then should the old property name still be checked as a last
resort?
I think it's currently ignored in trunk,
but "felix.startlevel.bundle" still seems to be accepted...

Hi,

You can set the "org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra=" property in
the
conf.properties file.
For example:
org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra=foo;version=1.0.0, \
 bar;version=1.1.0

Those packages will be appended to the default list contained in Felix.
So, if you launch the 'packages 0' command in the Felix shell, you will
see
the default exported packages, and the two appended packages:
->packages 0
...
System Bundle (0): org.xml.sax.ext; version=1.5.0
System Bundle (0): org.xml.sax.helpers; version=1.5.0
System Bundle (0): foo; version=1.0.0
System Bundle (0): bar; version=1.1.0

Regards,


Clement

Subject: Felix 1.3.0 Changes

Hei,

i have just built the 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT and i see there are some changes
from
the 1.2.1 (obviously).

I have a question about how i declare the packages the framework should
export. Are they defined as before, or is there a new key in the
config.proprties?

Thank you
