Hi, We are implementing OSGi in our product (embedding Equinox programmatically). Designing our Bundles installation error handling, we run some tests. Surprisingly, we see that when we install a regular jar archive in the FW, it's getting installed, resolved and even active, without any exception thrown. We also see that it has a regular bundle-id and that his bundle.getSymbolicName() returns null (Aligns with https://wiki.searchtechnologies.com/javadoc/osgi/osgi-javadoc-v41/org/osgi/framework/Bundle.html#getSymbolicName() )
This jar has a Manifest (I think generated by Maven) but it doesn't have any OSGi header in it. This is the Manifest: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Built-By: noname Created-By: Apache Maven 3.2.5 Build-Jdk: 1.8.0_92 Name: Skeleton Rule Build-Time: 2018-01-31 10:49 ArtifactId: skeleton Version: 5.9.2.2-SNAPSHOT GroupId: skel We use org.eclipse.osgi version 3.11.2 (which implements R6) >From what I see in the R6 core spec (section 3.12), the FW should throw an >exception in such case, when installing the jar. 3.12 Bundle Validity .... The following (non-exhaustive) list of errors causes a bundle to fail to install: * Missing Bundle-SymbolicName. Can anyone please clarify what is the expected behavior?
