Hi Everyone

We¹re using Amazon¹s AWS SDK for Java for a big OSGi-based project. To
this end, we¹ve repackaged the SDK by building from source and using the
maven packaging/plugin options and BND tools plugin to turn this into an
OSGi bundle.

Amazon are actually really helpful: they¹ve taken a couple of patches
we¹ve provided to the project where assumptions were being made about
ClassLoaders that weren¹t OSGi-safe, and we¹re discussing using the
pom.xml file we use to build the SDK Jar for general use. They¹re
apparently tried this in the past, but it hasn¹t worked out and I was
wondering if any of your guys who are more familiar with maven and BND
tools might be able to shed some light on this:

Amazon say:

When we changed the packaging to 'bundle' the artifacts were uploaded to
Maven central as '*.bundle' artifacts:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/amazonaws/aws-java-sdk/1.6.9/


This caused problems for our existing Maven consumers, because they were
no longer able to resolve Jar artifacts through Maven and couldn't access
the latest release, so we had to revert.

If you can shed more light on exactly why that was occurring and causing
problems, we'd be happy to listen.

Does anyone have any ideas what this means?

Best regards

Bruce
