Leonardo Uribe commented on MYFACES-2290:
-----------------------------------------

I forget to say, it was also committed some fixes to make myfaces code more 
friendly with osgi, including add a Require-Bundle header, so myfaces-api 
bundle can find myfaces-impl using the bundle classloader.

> 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.
