Add OSGi metadata to zookeeper.jar
----------------------------------

                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-425
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-425
             Project: Zookeeper
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 3.1.1
            Reporter: David Bosschaert


After adding OSGi metadata to zookeeper.jar it can be used as both an OSGi 
bundle as well as an ordinary jar file. 
In the CXF/DOSGi project the buildsystem does this using the 
maven-bundle-plugin: 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/dosgi/trunk/discovery/distributed/zookeeper-wrapper/pom.xml

The MANIFEST.MF generated by maven-bundle-plugin is attached to this bug, this 
works for the CXF/DOSGi project.
If your buildsystem isn't using maven, I would advise to use bnd 
(http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd). BND defines its own ant task in which you 
should be able to use more or less the same instructions as were used in maven:
<instructions>
  <Bundle-Name>ZooKeeper bundle</Bundle-Name>
  <Bundle-Description>This bundle contains the ZooKeeper 
library</Bundle-Description>
  <Bundle-SymbolicName>org.apache.hadoop.zookeeper</Bundle-SymbolicName>
  <Bundle-Version>3.1.1</Bundle-Version>
  <Import-Package>*</Import-Package>
  <Export-Package>*;version=3.1.1</Export-Package>
</instructions>

Oh and one other thing. Is it really necessary to put the source code in the 
Jar file too? I would put that in a separate source distribution :)
