I presume you're talking about Jigsaw? I saw Alex Buckley present on this at JAX London. My conclusions are listed here: http://www.perplentropy.com/2010/02/my-thoughts-on-alex-buckley-on-jigsaw.html
But the highlights (and how I still remember it) are: - the modularity is at the JDK level and not really intended for developers to base their applications on - packages will be split across modules - the modules will not include any kind of dynamism (which is what OSGi is all about) - it's not a proper module system, it's just for the purpose of allowing people to only use bits of the JDK they need to reduce footprint and improve start up times - as such Jigsaw and OSGi don't necessarily have to compete All that is just my opinion, not a definitive answer. =) Cheers, Chris On 27 May 2010 16:13, Elliot Huntington <[email protected]> wrote: > I haven't looked into Java 7 too much but I heard Java 7 will be > modifying the Java Specification to include bundles/modularity.
