Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-3520:
---------------------------------------------
After discussing with Guillaume, I would like to propose three points:
- in order to provide smooth backward compatibility, I propose to add
feature.resolver.mode in etc/org.apache.karaf.features.cfg. This property can
contain strict or backward values. Strict is the current behaviour: the
features resolver checks requirements and capabilities in order to install
"extra" bundles. Backward ignores the OSGi service requirement and will install
the feature even if some service requirements are not satisfied.
- as a workaround, it's already possible to provide requirements and
capabilities by hand in the resolver (using dedicated commands). Those commands
have to be documented as they provide good flexibility and allow users to find
their own workaround.
- the resolver error messages should be improved. If they can barely
understandable by developers, it's not easy for administrator. Imagine: I'm
just responsible of the installation and administration of Karaf. I deploy
features and I got such kind of resolution errors. I don't really know what's a
requirement, a capability, or even an OSGi service ;) So we should be able to
provide more "human readable" error messages (for instance, something like "The
foobar feature requires this, but Karaf doesn't find bundles providing such
kind of capability"). It means that we should improve the Felix Resolver, or at
least the Felix Resolver should throw a ResolverException that we can handle to
display "good" messages.
Thoughts ?
