             Summary: infinispan-core stores resources in default package, preventing OSGI export
                 Key: ISPN-2489
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2489
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core API
    Affects Versions: 5.2.0.Beta3, 5.1.6.FINAL
            Reporter: Vitalii Tymchyshyn
            Assignee: Mircea Markus


Currently infinispan stores resources (e.g. infinispan-core-component-metadata.dat) in the default package. This makes this resources private to infinispan-core OSGI bundle as default package can't be exported

So, first of all it does not start by default when cache manager is created from another bundle. If configuration is created explicitly passing infinispan-core classloader, it can start, but no additional components can be used (e.g. loaders from another bundles).

I can see next possible options to handle this:
1) Move resources to the package
2) Use multiple classloaders to read resources (as it's done for classes)
3) Use exact classloader, e.g. use fixed infinispan-core classloader to get infinispan-core-component-metadata.dat. Dunno if this would work for all resources, like jgroups configuration files.
