Hi John,

Thanks for the quick and clear response! I'll fix the import-package header.

I also logged the Jira: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-1381

Best regards,
Wouter Bancken

>> Subject: GenericDirective cannot be cast to VersionRangeAttribute

>> Dear,
>>
>> I'm getting the following exception when trying to install a subsystem:
>> GenericDirective cannot be cast to VersionRangeAttribute
>>
>> This exception is thrown when trying to parse the following
>> Import-Package header:
>>
>> Import-Package:
>> org.objectweb.asm;version:="[5.0.4,5.0.
>> 4]",org.objectweb.asm.signature;version:="[5.0.4,5.0.
>> 4]",org.objectweb.asm.tree;version:="[5.0.4,5.0.4]"
>>
>> The exception is thrown at line 155 of the ImportPackageHeader class:
>> return
> (VersionRangeAttribute)myParameters.get(Constants.VERSION_ATTRIBUTE);
>>
>> The reason for the wrong class is that the ParameterFactory class
>> cannot handle the ':=' in the specification of the version. It only
>> works for a single '=' without a colon:
>> if (symbol.equals("=")) {
>>    return AttributeFactory.createAttribute(name, value);
>> }
>>
>> Should I log a bug for this behaviour?
