Konrad Windszus created SLING-6249:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Move ServletResolverConstant to an exported package
Key: SLING-6249
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-6249
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: Servlets Resolver 2.4.6
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
The constants being defined in
{{o.a.s.servlets.resolver.internal.ServletResolverConstants}} are not only
useful for the servlet resolver bundle itself but basically for every Sling
Servlet being defined without the custom Felix SCR annotations. Therefore it
would be good to move that to a package which is exported (and therefore part
of the public API). Although in reality all constant Strings are inline in Java
(which means that should never be a runtime dependency towards that class)
currently the class does not even appear in
http://sling.apache.org/apidocs/sling7/ nor in
https://sling.apache.org/apidocs/sling7/constant-values.html. Also the
constants are not part of the uber-jar being generated for the Sling API as
well for AEM
(https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/develop/dev-tools/ht-projects-maven.html#What%20is%20the%20UberJar?).
This was first requested in
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg45467.html and became more
important with the advent of OSGi 6 component annotations (see also FELIX-5396).
