> Create dedicated parent for bundle projects
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-8008
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8008
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: General
> Affects Versions: Parent 34
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> As followup to the Sling Hackathon in Berlin in September (compare with
> [https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@sling.apache.org/msg79953.html
> |https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@sling.apache.org/msg79953.html).]there is
> the proposal to split up the current parent pom into two pieces: one for
> JARs/general aspect, another one for bundles (covering only those aspects).
>
> The reasons for this switch are:
> - we would like to switch completely to bnd-maven-plugin, but without the
> need for a separate bnd file
> - we currently have only one parent pom for bundle modules and non-bundle
> modules, making it difficult to configure the bnd-maven-plugin globally so it
> gets up picked only for bundles, not for simple jar files.
> - using maven profiles would be an option, but there is no nice way to
> trigger the profile without ugly hacks like having an empty bnd file present.
> - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAR-193 would be another solution
> (haven the bnd plugin handing over the manifest extensions to the maven jar
> plugin), but this feature is not available yet
>
> The proposed solutions looks like this
> - create an additional "sling-bundle-parent" inheriting from the existing
> "sling-parent"
> - all bundle-related stuff goes there and will be removed from "sling-parent"
> - old maven-bundle-plugin and bnd-maven-plugin should be removed from
> sling-parent
> - maven-bundle-plugin should be banned from sling-bundle-parent
> - one repo for both, always released together
> - start with next version 36
> - make a wiki page with migration steps
> - bundle modules will use "sling-bundle-parent", jar modules "sling-parent"
