Leonardo Uribe commented on MYFACES-2290:
-----------------------------------------
We can't add public classes on javax.faces package, because the classes there
are dictated by JSR-252, but maybe we can add classes under org.apache.myfaces
on myfaces-api jar.
We have to ask dev list how to deal with this. At this point we have the
following options:
1. add the required classes as public under org.apache.myfaces package
myfaces-api.jar
2. Create one or two jar specific for OSGi, that deal with this.
I'll ask this to dev list to see what we can do.
> Add OSGi bundle information and bundle classloader / activator

> The provided patch will add OSGi information to bundle manifest. A bundle
> activator class makes the MyFaces framework aware that it is running in a
> bundle environment. A bundle classloader is used to load classes and
> resources from the bundle classpath. The patch doesn't require any new
> runtime dependencies and doesn't affect class loading in a non-OSGi
> environment. Though, small modifications to classloading were needed. This
> was mainly replacing Thread.currentThread.getContextClassLoader() with
> ClassUtils methods.
> To run MyFaces in an OSGi environment both bundles (myfaces-api and
> myfaces-impl) have to be started in the OSGi container. Additionally, the
> myfaces-impl bundle has to be made available to myfaces-api. Use a fragment
> bundle with myfaces-api as Fragment-Host and myfaces-impl as Required-Bundle.
