Rob Stryker resolved JBIDE-9424.
--------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 3.3.0.M3
       Resolution: Done


It seems that the current implementation functions exactly as well as the OSGi launch configuration, and the export mechanism. They allow you to select which modules to include, but do no real dependency management in demanding a required bundle gets included.  Export doesn't show an error if you try to export MasterBundle without exporting DependencyBundle.  The launch config behaves similarly, without even a warning. 

In this regard, I'd declare that this jira is closed. 

It seems in the OSGi launch configuration, it pre-selects "Equinox" as the only possible implementation. I'd need a lot of help from an AS developer to learn how to launch an absolutely bare-bones AS7 OSGi configuration and include the selected bundles in it on-the-fly. I don't think that is something that can be addressed by this JIRA and is not feasible in the short term future. If you have specific ideas or details how that can be accomplished, please feel free to open another JIRA with that request :D

> AS7 supports OSGi bundles as deployments, and Eclipse supports the creation of OSGi bundles through the built-in PDE tooling (see [1] for an example). However, OSGi bundles developed with Eclipse PDE can't be deployed via the JBDS to AS7 yet. 
> Support for deploying OSGi bundles to AS7 should be added to the JBoss Tooling.
