Konrad Windszus updated TIKA-4700:
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 4.0.0
> Support OSGi Service Loader Mediator Spec
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-4700
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4700
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.0.0
>
>
> The [Java Service
> Loader|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html]
> is not properly supported in OSGi cross bundle boundaries due to Classloader
> visibility restrictions. In order to circumvent this limitation the [OSGi
> Service Loader Mediator
> Specification|https://docs.osgi.org/specification/osgi.cmpn/7.0.0/service.loader.html]
> defines certain {{Capabilities}} which are used to set up a registry where
> all bundles have access to providers (no matter from which bundles).
> This mechanism is just relying on additional Manifest headers which don't
> impact usability of those JARs outside OSGi.
