    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4615?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12687436#comment-12687436 ] 

Thomas Diesler commented on AS7-4615:
-------------------------------------

The OSGi Repository is the maintainer of this information. In future, when the repository supports initial loading and persistence of resource capabilities/requirements we can populate the repository with information obtained at build time.

> If the AppServer supports the notion of multiple directories where modules can get loaded from, the ServerEnvironment should reflect that properly. I cannot just load a module on trial/error basis because we use the Repository for impact ananlysis. i.e. Find the modules/bundles that provide the transitive set of capabilities for a given set of requirements (without modifying the runtime).
