I knew about the 4.2 thing - but I specifically pulled down equinox 3.5 dependencies because version that Karaf uses is 3.5.x. (<equinox.version> 3.5.0.v20090429-1630</equinox.version> in top level pom.xml).
I think the biggest issues with me using felix is fragment bundle support. We are planning on using fragments for contributing types to hibernate session factory vs. doing something more complicated (i.e. modulefusion like). Our customers would not mind a quick reboot when deploying a patch or another set of features. We are also planning on using fragments to provide easy UI bundles when customizing L&F for application. I did check on the versions and they are different from compendium and equinox services/utils. Versions are bumped up a notch in equinox case. One thing in compendium that confused me was use of DynamicImport-Package: *. Why would that be there? In equinox services there is this configuration: DynamicImport-Package: javax.servlet,javax.servlet.http I rulled out SpringDM change early on. I did try to 1.2.0-rc1 and 1.2.0 final with same result. I did not roll back spring jars to 2.5.6.A vs .SEC01. I did not want to rollback to 2.5.6 because I seem to remmember Spring guys mentioning that 2.5.6.A was a fix to the manifest ( of I could be mistaking a version number ). I think I tried felix but got some other issue that I can recollect now. I think it had to do with one of the Hibernate bundles from BRITS (annotations I think) that is packaged as a fragment. I can try to bump down a version of equinox, but I would really hate to do that. I would really like to use distributed osgi part of it to simplify (hopefully) cxf integration.
