Jake Farrell commented on THRIFT-184:
-------------------------------------
Is bnd necessary here since there is no activator and the goal is to make
org.apache.thrift available to other bundles. Putting the following in the
manifest when generating the libthrift.jar in the dist goal should solve this
problem.
{code:xml}
<manifest>
<attribute name="Implementation-Version" value="${version}"/>
<!-- Added for OSGI support -->
<attribute name="Bundle-Name" value="Apache Thrift"/>
<attribute name="Bundle-Description" value="Apache Thrift library"/>
<attribute name="Bundle-SymbolicName" value="${thrift.groupid}"/>
<attribute name="Bundle-ManifestVersion" value="2"/>
<attribute name="Bundle-Version" value="${version}"/>
<attribute name="Export-Package" value="${thrift.groupid}"/>
<attribute name="Import-Package" value="*"/>
</manifest>
{code}
Simple test showed this modified manifest jar loaded in felix.

Siamak, if you could please test this in your setup to verify it works for what
you are trying to accomplish i'll generate a patch and attach it.
