That would be really helpful. Using CXF also requires to not export some system packages. Currently we have to completely redefine the system packages. So it would be nice to be able to just specify which packages to add (already works) and which to remove.

I don't think anyone opened an issue for this against the framework, would you do so? Thanks.


Of course it would be ideal to have a common solution with equinox for this.

I talked with Tom Watson, we might be able to coordinate such a feature.

Hi Felix,

Yes I understand that you don't have a set of packages defined for Java 8 yet. I was more wondering about the possibility of "filtering" the default
packages provides by saying something like

"org.osgi.framework.system.packages=defaults, !javax.annotation"

This would help me since I'm only stating what I don't want the framework
to export, so that my config-file can be used on a future felix/java
installation too. As it is now, I state what I want to include, meaning
that my config can't be used properly in a new felix install (say with OSGi
4.4 or Java 8) since.

I assume the answer is no, but asking doesn't hurt. :)

Hi

In Felix these packages are defined on a per-Java version basis in version
specific properties. This way we can semi-dynamically define the actual
packages depending on the actual Java version.

Currently we have versions upto and including Java 7 extracted from the
actual Java Platform. The Java 8 version is currently the same as for Java
7 to at least support running on Java 8 -- but as the Java 8 API is not
final yet, we cannot define these packages definitely yet.

Hope this helps.

Felix

Hi,

I'm trying to start a minimal set-up to run Jersey (JAX-RS) and Jetty in
Apache Felix. When doing this, I get a uses constraint violation on
javax.annotation.

None of this is of course Felix concern, but...

I was wondering if there is a quick way to specify the
"org.osgi.framework.system.packages" (or any other) property to
*exclude* certain
packages. What I did was that I ran "inspect c osgi.wiring.package 0" and copy/pasted the result (with some find-replace to format it correctly and
removing javax.annotation) to the system.packages property. This works
fine. However, it isn't very "future proof". If either felix or java8
comes
with a new set of "default" packages, I have to change this property.

So, is there any way to remove only some of the default exported
packages -
or is this an all-or-none affair?

Regards,
Per-Erik Svensson
