In OSGi R4.3 arbitrary matching attributes were added to Require-Bundle and Fragment-Host (bug 328508). Equinox 3.7 implements R4.3 Core Framework specification, this is why you are seeing this issue in 3.7 only. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 329375 *** (In reply to comment #0) > The question is now - why did this not lead to an error when working with > Eclipse 3.6.2 and why does this problem first occur when trying to start the > bundle (instead of e.g. during installation of the feature it belongs to)? This is a question for p2. You should open a bug against p2. p2 currently does not pay attention to the arbitrary matching attributes on the Require-Bundle constraints. |
After switching to the Eclipse Indigo M7 "Version: 3.7.0 Build id: I20110310-1119", an invalid usage of a "Require-Bundle"-attribute prevented one of our bundles from starting: Missing required bundle javax.persistence_[2.0.3,3.0.0). After migrating from Eclipse 3.6 SR 2 to Eclipse Indigo M7 one of our main bundles "org.eclipse.jubula.client.core" failed during start: osgi> bundle org.eclipse.jubula.client.core org.eclipse.jubula.client.core_0.9.0.201104260531 [154] Id=154, Status=INSTALLED No registered services. No services in use. No exported packages No imported packages No fragment bundles No named class spaces No required bundles osgi> diag org.eclipse.jubula.client.core reference:file:plugins/org.eclipse.jubula.client.core_0.9.0.201104260531.jar [154] Direct constraints which are unresolved: Missing required bundle javax.persistence_[2.0.3,3.0.0). Although the "javax.persistence"-bundle was available and "ACTIVE": osgi> bundle javax.persistence javax.persistence_2.0.3.v201010191057 [11] Id=11, Status=ACTIVE No registered services. No services in use. Exported packages javax.persistence.spi; version="2.0.3"[exported] javax.persistence; version="2.0.3"[exported] javax.persistence.criteria; version="2.0.3"[exported] javax.persistence.metamodel; version="2.0.3"[exported] org.osgi.service.jpa; version="1.0.0"[exported] Imported packages org.osgi.framework; version="1.6.0"<org.eclipse.osgi_3.7.0.v20110304 [0]> javax.sql; version="0.0.0"<org.eclipse.osgi_3.7.0.v20110304 [0]> No fragment bundles Named class space javax.persistence; bundle-version="2.0.3.v201010191057"[provided] No required bundles The same version of our bundle starts in the previous service release (3.6.2) of Eclipse without any problems. We discovered that we were using an import package attribute jpa="2.0" for the "javax.persistence" bundle dependency which may never have actually had an effect. The line from the "Require-Bundle:" section was as follows: javax.persistence;bundle-version="[2.0.3,3.0.0)";jpa="2.0";visibility:=reexport This was changed to: javax.persistence;bundle-version="[2.0.3,3.0.0)";visibility:=reexport Removing this attribute resolved the problem for Eclipse Indigo M7. The question is now - why did this not lead to an error when working with Eclipse 3.6.2 and why does this problem first occur when trying to start the bundle (instead of e.g. during installation of the feature it belongs to)?
