             Summary: Deprecate inheritance of component descriptors
                 Key: FELIX-4170
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-4170
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Maven SCR Plugin
            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
            Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
             Fix For: maven-scr-plugin 1.14.0, scr ant task 1.8.0, scr 
generator 1.8.0


The inheritance feature of the annotations is problematic as this only works 
reliable if the super class used at build time is the same as at run time. 
However at the point of descriptor generation this can't be ensured and 
therefore might lead to subtle problems.
In addition, the DS spec decided against inheritance for the same reasons.

Therefore it is advisable to remove this feature in the long run. As a first 
step we should log a warning if inheritance is used
