[jboss-dev-forums] [JBoss OSGi Development] - Consolidating OSGi deployers

[thomas.diesler@jboss.com]

There are two "types" deployers

#1 generic
#2 mc framework specific

https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBOSGI-180

The generic deployers are used by the jboss-osgi-microcontainer bundle, the jbossas integration for felix/equinox and the mc framework. They are generic in a sense that they only have a dependency on the org.osgi API and not on any specific framework implementation.

The specific mc framework deployers are an integral part of that framework. They have a dependency on implementation details and also need to be available to run the tests

A possible structure that allows generic and specific deployers to move together would be


  | framework
  |  +- core
  |  +- deployers
  |  +- testsuite
  | 

We may revisit this issue when the framework starts to fall into multiple modules anyway.
