I am having a problem where the org.apache.felix maven-bundle-plugin which generates version syntax that is not compatible with the Apache ServiceMix OSGI container. It won't deploy.
A previous version of the plug-in generated the version syntax as "X.Y" in MANIFEST.MF Import-Package: edu.berkeley.ist.sws.common.dbcp;resolution:=optional, edu.berkeley.sws.common.domain;resolution:=optional,edu.berkeley.sws. coursebf;resolution:=optional,edu.berkeley.sws.coursebf.domain;resolu tion:=optional,javax.sql;resolution:=optional,javax.xml.bind.annotati on;resolution:=optional,org.apache.commons.lang.builder;resolution:=o ptional;version="2.4",org.springframework.beans.factory;resolution:=o ptional;version="2.5",org.springframework.beans.factory.config;resolu tion:=optional;version="2.5",org.springframework.jdbc.core;resolution :=optional;version="3.0" A new version of the plug-in generates the version syntax "[X.Y,Z)" in MANIFEST.MF Import-Package: edu.berkeley.ist.sws.common.dbcp;resolution:=optional, edu.berkeley.sws.common.domain;resolution:=optional,edu.berkeley.sws. coursebf.domain;resolution:=optional,javax.sql;resolution:=optional,j avax.xml.bind.annotation;resolution:=optional,org.apache.commons.lang .builder;resolution:=optional;version="[2.4,3)",org.springframework.b eans.factory;resolution:=optional;version="[2.5,3)",org.springframewo rk.beans.factory.config;resolution:=optional;version="[2.5,3)",org.sp ringframework.jdbc.core;resolution:=optional;version="[3.0,4)" This syntax can not be read by Apache ServiceMix 4.3 and the jar will not deploy successfully. Instead it gets a class not found because one of the packages is not successfully exported or imported. What does open-bracket X dot Y comma Z close-paren actually mean? Questions: 1. Is there a way to force the plugin to use the older version="X.Y" syntax? 2. Is there a way to specify a version of the plug into generate the older syntax? 3. Is there a way to specify an older version of bndlib? I have bndlib 0.0.357 in my repository but the install insists on picking up version 1.15.0 instead. If there is another forum I should try also, let me know. We are deploying into apache-servicemix-4.3.0-fuse-03-00 I have also tried apache-servicemix-4.3.1-fuse-01-09 and apache-servicemix-4.3.0 Thanks! Regards, Richard Katz
