Tim Moloney commented on FELIX-247:
-----------------------------------
Okay, I understand the confusion.
The patch *is* a slightly modified copy of the currently released ant file. I
did this since it is more self-contained and convenient. People who want to
use this patch can just apply it to Felix rather than having to download and
build the latest version of the ant plugin. Hopefully, the next release
version of the ant plugin will allow us to set a property so we don't have to
do this ugly kludge.
As was stated in the email thread, I'm not in a hurry. This issue can be left
open until we can implement it properly with the (hopefully) next release of
the ant plugin. I'm perfectly okay with that. :)

> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Maven Bundle Plugin
> Reporter: Tim Moloney
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: maven-bundle-plugin-ant-1.patch
>
>
> Modify maven-bundle-plugin so that runing
> mvn org.apache.felix:maven-bundle-plugin:ant
> creates the build.xml and MANIFEST.MF files for the current source code.
> This allows a working bundle to be created from a source distribution using
> ant (without using maven).
> The goal of this issue is not to allow development using ant but to provide a
> way of distributing source code that uses ant to build a working bundle. Any
> changes to the source code that affect the bundle headers would not be
> updated in the manifest, since the manifest file is created at the same time
> as the build file and is not changed by any ant task.
