Update site and relase as OSGI bundle [message #1751603]

Hi,

are there updates on having the library on either an update site, or at least as osgi bundles?

The
eclipse-collection-api.8.0.0.jar

1.
In my opinion, the name should be like
org.eclipse.collections.api_8.0.0.jar

In META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
Bundle-SymbolicName: org.eclipse.collections.api
Export-Package: org.eclipse.collections.api;version="8.0.0",
org.eclipse.collections.api.list;version="8.0.0",
org.eclipse.collections.api.list.primitive;version="8.0.0",
org.eclipse.collections.api.map;version="8.0.0",
...

2.
The symbolic name should match the file name.

3.
Like it is today, only the root package is exported and the real content is not accessible from a Eclipse plugin.

Hi Frank,

Thanks for your comment!

As for #3, we've fixed it as part of this GitHub issue. We'll update as soon as we decide when we release the fix.

As for #1 and #2, sorry for my ignorance, but how critical it is to match the file name and Bundle-SymbolicName? If it is just a suggested convention to follow (i.e. it doesn't break anything), we'd probably want to keep them as is. If it breaks something, can we do the other way round, that is, to change Bundle-SymbolicName to match current file name "eclipse-collection-api"?

We have fixed the issues and are now exporting all packages. So, it should be OSGi ready.

Changing the Bundle-Symbolic Name is tracked on this GitHub issue: https://github.com/eclipse/eclipse-collections/issues/226

Adding Eclipse Collections to update site and p2 repository is tracked on this GitHub issue: https://github.com/eclipse/eclipse-collections/issues/223

Feel free to vote, make your suggestion on the GitHub issue.
