Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-2722:
-----------------------------------------
I'm not sure if checking transitive dependencies is the way to go, I rather
have the feeling that transitive bundle list don't work the way they should.
Let's asume we have a project named "base" which is a partial bundle list, now
we have another partial bundle list "components" which has "base" as it's
dependency.
The bundle list of "components" should include the artifacts from "base".
If I have now a project "all" depending on "components", this should bring all
artifacts from "base" into "all" as these are part of the "components" bundle
list.
I haven't looked at it yet, but I assume right now "components" does not
contain the artifacts from "base" - and I would rather change this, then going
through transitive dependencies

> While the "maven-launchpad-plugin" does support the inclusion of
> "partialbundlelist" by adding dependencies with the
> <type>partialbundlelist</type> to the pom.xml file. It does only consider
> direct dependencies and not transitive one.
> Transitive dependencies would allow to create partial bundle list that add to
> (depend on) others. This allows to make bundle lists self consistent without
> repeating bundles (e.g. common libraries) over and over again.
> It would also allow to define bundle lists for different 'levels': low level
> lists for managing modules requires by services that are than merged to an
> higher level bundle list that covers a user level feature.
> To give a simplified Example: In Apache Stanbol I would like to use this
> feature to create bundlelists like
> * Apache OpenNLP
> * Stanbol Enhancer component
> * OpenNLP based NLP processing Enhancement Engines
> * depends on OpenNLP
> * depends on Stanbol Enahncer
