jetty 6 osgi support [message #92304] Wed, 18 July 2007 20:25 Go to next message

Starting from release 6.1.5 Jetty jars will ship with OSGI manifests.
I'm willing to integrate that with org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty, but
the imported package versions are [5.1.0,6.0.0). I see some options here:

- modify dependencies in equinox jetty packages to include the 6.1 jars
- create a new equinox jetty package to follow versions [6.1.0,7.0.0)
- add an Activator to jetty jars to register it as a http service and
submit it to Jetty project

As a more general question, until now projects as eclipse had to
OSGi-enable dependent projects writing thin layers around them. As OSGi
becomes more commonplace, do you see each dependent project already
shipping this jars with this layers?

Thanks,

Gustavo

Hi Gustavo,

That's great news.

That would be appreciated. Please open an enhancement request and attach
your patches
for a starting point you might want to look at an integration with Jetty 6
from a while back here -

Jetty 5.1 and Jetty 6.x are not API compatible so we unfortunately can't
just increase the version range.
My best guess is that we will want to have two versions/branches of the
http.jetty bundle.

No, we definitely want to use the bundles packaged by the owning party
whenever possible.
We're already doing this with a few contributed bundles at Orbit and with a
little luck more projects too.

Thanks for the tip.

That's nice because I have some other projects in view.
