Hi Jeff,

How about we open an EMF Bugzilla on this? Jeff, would you be willing to advise via that Bugzilla on the steps (interim and longterm) that we can use to remove the dependencies?

FWIW, the Eclipse Runtime bundle is pretty much of a legacy thing and we have been trying to get people off of it. Unfortunately its a slow process. People generally will not disrupt what has been working for them until their are usecases/users who need them to change. I suggest that people interested in using EMF outside of Equinox make their needs/desires known to the EMF team. In the vast majority of cases there is no need for people to use the Runtime bundle at all (through import-package or require-bundle).

        [osgi-dev] Use of Require-Bundle in Eclipse plugins



        





Hello,
I am trying to run Apache Tuscany SDO under OSGi, and we are using the Apache Felix OSGi runtime. SDO has a dependency on EMF, and hence we need to install the EMF bundles in OSGi. Unfortunately the bundle manifest entries of the EMF jars use Require-Bundle of org.eclipse.core.runtime, which in turn requires Equinox. Since I would like to use the EMF classes under Felix (as well as Equinox), I would like to find some way of running EMF jars under OSGi without requiring Eclipse. There is a thread on the EMF mailing list (_http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/article.php?id=29582&group=eclipse.tools.emf#29582 _ <http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/article.php?id=29582&group=eclipse.tools.emf#29582>) related to this. Since there are other projects which would also benefit from a pure-OSGi solution, this may be a better place to discuss this issue.


Thank you...

Regards,

Rajini _______________________________________________
