[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of OSGi Integration] - OSGi/MC Deployer todos

[adrian@jboss.org]

The current deployers are just the ones for bundle lifecycle.

The ones that are missing are the;

OSGiStructure

OSGi bundles are not allowed to have subdeployments. Instead you have
to specifically list nested jars to be a part of the classpath using the manifest. 
This is similar to how an ear works.

CLASSLOADING

As I mentioned on the METADATA todos. Some of the metadata is wrong,
e.g. the VersionRange for exporting packages. So I haven't mapped all these
into JBoss ClassLoadingMetaData yet. See also the ClassLoading todos.

DECLARATIVE SERVICES

This deployer should add dependencies to a deployment for the required services
before it is activated, i.e. reaches the "REAL" stage.
Since the service layer is not yet integrated with the MC (see the services todos) 
this can't be implemented yet.
