Interesting ... haven't started looking at JDK8 yet, but I'm guessing
this will also mess with mangen too.
I know it's pretty much only us that use it, and we wrote it. It's been
in need of a revisit for literally years for some quite nasty fixes I've
been putting off. Sounds like this may force me into it ;)

Hey there,
Has anyone tracked what the status of Felix/OSGi is under JDK8
(targetted bytecode) etc. is yet?
So far AFAIK:
* maven-scr-plugin broken due to ASM 5 not being released, so
doesn't support new bytecode
* maven-bundle-plugin broken due to BND also not supporting JDK8
bytecode, or source code
Any one know if Pax-CDI works? iPojo?
Felix/Karaf itself all seems to work fine running UNDER JDK8 once I
added the jre exports tho.
Has anyone built up -SNAPSHOTS of the above two plugins with SNAPSHOTS
of dependencies to get something working so that once JDK8 is
officially released ( or better, once the RC is released ) that
broader testing of OSGi based apps can go forth.
