Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-2117:
------------------------------------------
This might make perfect sense. But it would probably require rewriting of some
plugins which currently do not load if the dependency is satisified.
When switching to dynamic imports, the plugins must load and operate without
the API being present and start doing useful things when the API is present.
> Use DynamicImport instead of Optional Packages

> Key: FELIX-2117
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2117
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Web Console
> Reporter: Valentin Valchev
>
> Currently the web console uses optional packages for some plugins.
> Unfortunately an 'optional' import is wired when the bundle is resolved.
> DynamicImport however is wired when the package is accessed.
> This means, that currently, you
> - install webconsole
> - install scr
> = scr plugin is not available
> - resolve webconsole (again)
> = scr plugin is available after 1 additional step
> However if DynamicImport is used, the SCR plugin will become available
> immediately after it is being installed.
