Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-65:
----------------------------------------
I do not really understand this issue. In addition it is quite a few years old.
Can we closed this ?
> Support bundle-based web applications
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-65
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-65
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: HTTP Service
> Reporter: Richard S. Hall
>
> Daniel Fagerstrom says:
> A separate issue (bundle based webapps e.g.) would be good. For bundle based
> webapps one need IMO framework support on (at least) two different level: An
> implementation of the whiteboard pattern for making it easier to use the Http
> service (see FELIX-64) and OSGi aware webapp container functionality for
> enabling communication between servlets in a convenient way.
> I guess that most people who start using the Http service will develop a
> "whiteboard adaptor" so that it is enough for a servlet bundle to register a
> servlet service together with a context path, the whiteboard adaptor reacts
> on the service registration event an register the servlet in the Http
> Service. Felix could provide a "standard" implementation of this. In Cocoon
> we have an implementation that use the declarative service:
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/trunk/core/cocoon-blocks-fw/cocoon-blocks-fw-impl/META-INF/components.xml,
>
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/trunk/core/cocoon-blocks-fw/cocoon-blocks-fw-impl/src/main/java/org/apache/cocoon/blocks/Activator.java.
> The Http service doesn't give much support at all for communication between
> servlets and for having reusable servlets. In the Cocoon community we have
> worked on developing a framework for block (plugin) based webapps for quite a
> while (see
> http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=114237414521595&w=2 for the
> latest incarnation and http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/Blocks for a higher
> level, but obsolete description).
> This work includes having a light weight OSGi aware webapp container. If
> there is interest, the more generic parts (or all of the framework), could be
> developed together with the Felix community.
