bundlerepository does not support RFC 112 Greater and Less operators
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-3023
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3023
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Bundle Repository (OBR)
Affects Versions: bundlerepository-1.6.4
Environment: Apache Karaf 2.2.1 / bundlerepository 1.6.4
Reporter: Stephen Evanchik
Attachments: rfc112_5.6.1_exclusive_inequality_operators.patch
I am using Ivy's "buildobr" Ant task to construct an OBR from my Eclipse
installation. It is generating filters in the following format:
(&(package=org.eclipse.core.runtime)(version<1.5.0))
which cannot be parsed by the org.apache.felix.bundlerepository in Karaf 2.2.1
I see the following exceptions in the Karaf logs:
java.lang.Exception: Error while parsing resource null at line 10 and column 129

After looking through several examples of OBR XML files and reading the spec I
understand that the original OBR spec/implementation simply inherited the LDAP
Filter constraints from the core OSGi specification.
This was fixed by FELIX-973 for bundlerepository-1.4.0 in 2009 but after
FELIX-2134 was committed it appears to have reverted to the standard OSGi LDAP
Filter constraints.
Making matters worse (for my at least) is HEAD has changed substantially from
FELIX-2134 and I'm not sure where to put the OBR specific FilterImpl.
