Bug 525803

Description Pierre-Charles David 2017-10-10 04:15:19 EDT

From the thread at https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/cross-project-issues-dev/msg14888.html: to make sure our OSGi bundles can be consumed as Java 9 modules, it seems that it would be enough to add Automatic-Module-Name headers to our MANIFEST.MF. I'm not sure how important it is for us to be "consumable" as Java 9 modules, but the change is simple and low risk enough that we might do it anyway.

As a first approximation, a "one-shot" implementation could simply be made using a script like this:

for m in plugins/*/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF; do
    name=$(grep Bundle-SymbolicName $m | cut -d':' -f2 | cut -d';' -f1)
    echo " Automatic-Module-Name: $name" >> $m
done
