Because I've already released a version of Equinox with the current Plurl signatures I will need to attempt to make any new implementation with the new APIs still be able to handle when copies of the old APIs are still in use in the same JVM instance. That may become impossible over time, but I want to at least try to provide some compatibility between versions of plurl. Otherwise it will become increasingly difficult to be able to update a core framework implementation which hosts other applications which may embed their own version of a framework implementation (Equinox or Felix). Think of a WAR that uses osgi connect to compose their application components using felix or equinox in their WEB-INF/lib folder. And then that WAR being deployed to a server which is implemented with OSGi, such as glashfish(using felix) or liberty(using equinox). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
