> Retire artifacts that produce an OSGi bundle
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JENA-2165
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-2165
> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: OSGi
> Affects Versions: Jena 4.2.0
> Reporter: Andy Seaborne
> Priority: Major
>
> This ticket is to discuss retiring OSGi support in the Jena build and release.
> In the 4.2.0 release cycle, a new problem emerged caused by adding a
> dependency on [Titanium JSON-LD|https://github.com/filip26/titanium-json-ld]
> to get JSON-LD 1.1 support which is not currently OSGi compatible. There is a
> quick fix in the code making Titanium optional for the OSGi bundle but that
> seems rather unsatisfactory and blocks us switching to Titanium for JSON-LD
> reading by default.
> Testing of OSGi within the build has skipped because it does not work. The
> tests setup fails for a single build from empty and the release, and release
> checking, do exactly that. JENA-913.
> We don't have OSGi skills/interest amongst the developers.
> If the project does not have assistance in maintaining the OSGi bundle
> support, we ought to consider retiring the OSGi artifacts.
> Retiring:
> # Removing the code from the git repo
> # Leaving a marker in the directory with the commit id of the last time it
> was in the codebase.
> # Code can be brought out of retirement if there is sufficient interest and
> support.
> Artifacts: apache-jena-osgi and under that directory: jena-osgi,
> jena-osgi-features, jena-osgi-test.
