Christian Schneider commented on KARAF-3469:
--------------------------------------------
The code is in config.core. I worked around the issue by using the OSGi API so
it is not critical to have this.
It would be possible to move that code into a new bundle but I thought a bundle
for just one command would be overkill.
About the felix command style: Felix commands are implemented as singletons. So
they can simply be registered as services using plain DS. Se we would not have
to create any wiring framework at all. When I look at the current karaf 4 code
I feel that we are doing things in a very proprietary way. Most of this is
because we decided that commands should be created per execution. But we
dicussed this already and I am being off topic for this issue :-)

> To inject services into commands you use the
> @org.apache.karaf.shell.api.action.lifecycle.Reference annotation. Unlike the
> one from DS this annotation does not have an optional flag.
> We should allow to reference optional services and have them injected with
> null if they are not present.
