----------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify icon location
Key: FELIX-3733
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3733
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Task
Components: Metatype Service, Specification compliance
Affects Versions: metatype-1.0.4
Reporter: Felix Meschberger
Assignee: Felix Meschberger
Fix For: metatype-1.0.6
The Metatype Service specification states for the location value of the icon
element (Table 105.1 in section 105.7.1):
The resource is a URL. The base URL is assumed to be the XML file
with the definition. I.e. if the XML is a resource in the JAR file, then
this
URL can reference another resource in that JAR file using a relative URL.
Our current implementation takes this definition and uses the XML resource URL
as the base URL to create the Icon URL.
For example: If the icon resource path is "icon/sample.png" and the XML
resource URL is "file://bundle-5/OSGI-INF/metatype/sample.xml" then the icon
resource URL would be assumed to be "file://bundle-5/OSGI-INF/icon/sample.png".
In contrast the current OSGi CT work-in-progress expects the URL to be relative
to the defining bundle.
It must be clarified which reading is correct.
