Re: [ecf-dev] about capabilities

Hi Scott and all,
I noted that you removed the Provide-Capability from JMS provider
here:
https://github.com/ECF/JMS/commit/fd16245cc55c2028c77bf6d74430896fd129c95b
, but kept in others. what was the reason ?
It was an oversight on my part. I had to remove the existing ones when
doing R6 CT tests as they were not well-formed, but forgot to add the
correct ones back in. To fix I've created this bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=449236
As you can see by the bug, I've corrected/added and pushed to master.
Thanks for the report.
I'm looking at the examples and noted that almost all is referencing
org.eclipse.ecf.osgi.services.distribution.IDistributionConstants
interface. that explicitly makes the bundle to import
org.eclipse.ecf.osgi.services.distribution package and consequently
the org.eclipse.ecf.osgi.services.distribution bundle installed. ok.
doubt. would I got the same result (ensure that we must have the right
ECF bundle installed) using Require-Capability:
osgi.remoteserviceadmin.topology instead ?
Not completely (you wouldn't get all the effects). You would of course
have the capability, but you wouldn't also get the starting of the
o.e.e.osgi.services.distribution bundle that is triggered by the class
load of IDistributionConstants upon app startup (as used by the older
examples). The reasons that some of the examples still use
IDistributionConstants is 1) that they were written before the RSA
topology manager capability existed and haven't been updated; 2) The
class dependency on IDistributionConstants simplifies and avoids the
need to have an explicit start of the o.e.e.osgi.services.distribution
bundle.
and what if I have topology implementation, how to filter for one ?
If you have your own topology manager, I would encourage the use of the
OSGi topologymanager capability. Startup is (of course) up to you.
I noted that that are example of the use of the extender for
endpoint-descriptions file, but what about to change some example
project to demonstrate the other new capabilities stuffs ?
Sounds like a good idea. Feel free to open an enhancement and
contributions are welcome.
Scott
