Lukas Roedl commented on KARAF-751:
-----------------------------------
My first try also was to get the sling bundles running. Unfortunately SCR isn't
running in Karaf out of the box and you have to install the scr feature. And
that caused some errors which I don't remember anymore.
Furthermore the software we run on top of Karaf is only using Blueprint (so we
would need SCR only for the scheduler) and I also wanted to be able to at least
list the current scheduler jobs within the Karaf shell.
These were the reasons for creating the blueprint version.
But I agree that it's not the best option to have a modified version of the
scheduler in Karaf and then have the need to keep track of the changes in the
original implementation.
So what I desire is a bundle which has as few as possible dependencies,
supports blueprint and SCR at the same time and offers the possibility to
access the planned jobs, so that they can be displayed and maybe modified via
the shell.
To enable that maybe it's the best to use just the Framework API and make the
thread pool optional. But that's just my 2 cents...
