Support Gogo commands which are Java language keywords
------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-3216
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3216
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Glyn Normington
In migrating a long-standing set of commands to Gogo under Virgo bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=350853, we found that we couldn't
implement the "package" command because this is a Java keyword and cannot be
used as a method name.
This impacts our users. We followed the precedent of Equinox and renamed the
command "packages" instead of "package", but this really is wrong as the
singular is used for all similar commands (bundle, par, plan, service).
Gogo could be enhanced to allow such command names as follows. It should try to
match each command name in the service property with a method name, but if one
cannot be found, it could add "_" to the start of the method name and try
again. So in the example above, we would specify "package" in the service
property, but implement a "_package" method.
