Rename ScrService
-----------------
Key: FELIX-1933
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1933
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Declarative Services (SCR)
Affects Versions: scr-1.2.0
Reporter: Felix Meschberger
Assignee: Felix Meschberger
Fix For: scr-1.2.2
The Eclipse project is currently considering adding our ScrService API into
their Declarative Services implementation. But there are concerns with the
current service name: ScrService.
The current proposals from the Eclipse community are: ScrAdmin or
ComponentAdmin.
I agree with the ScrService not being the best possible name, so I threw
DeclarativeServicesAdmin or DSAdmin into the pot (based on similar naming in
the Configuration Admin and Event Admin specifications).
Whatever will be the outcome, we will probably have to change the name, too.
But we will have to do so in a backwards compatible manner.
An option would be to keep the old service interface and name as deprecated for
the near future (or until the OSGi would eventually officially define the API
and service). The Felix DS implementation would register both services and thus
support backward compatible and current service names.
