Description Thomas Watson CLA 2008-11-03 11:58:33 EST 
This bug is to track the release of R4.2 companion code provided by OSGi.
Comment 1 Thomas Watson CLA 2008-11-03 12:00:00 EST 
We will release the new API as it becomes available.  We must have the final version of the OSGi companion code by M6.
Comment 2 Thomas Watson CLA 2008-11-03 13:02:42 EST 
I released the 4.2.0.200810310831 version of companion code into org.eclipse.osgi.

Still need to update the following projects with the latest:

org.eclipse.equinox.app
org.eclipse.equinox.preferences
org.eclipse.osgi.services
Comment 3 Thomas Watson CLA 2008-11-03 14:11:01 EST 
I had to revert the changes to the following exceptions until we update the build to use either Foundation 1.1 or hopefully OSGi/Minimum-1.2 to build org.eclipse.osgi against.

BundleException
InvalidSyntaxException
ServiceException
Comment 4 Thomas Watson CLA 2008-12-05 10:06:07 EST 
I have updated the following projects with the latest osgi APIs.  The latest OSGi APIs now require at least OSGi min 1.2 EE.

org.eclipse.equinox.app
org.eclipse.equinox.preferences
org.eclipse.osgi
org.eclipse.osgi.services
org.eclipse.osgi.util

As a result these BREE headers needed to be updated to require OSGi min 1.2, foundation 1.1 or J2SE-1.4.  I included foundation 1.1 and J2SE-1.4 so these bundles would continue to work if deployed to an older framework that did not understand about the new OSGi min 1.2.

I also had to update the following bundles BREE's to osgi min 1.2 because they would not compile against the new OSGi classes without it.

org.eclipse.equinox.cm
org.eclipse.equinox.ds

See OSGi https://www.osgi.org/members/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=940.  If OSGi fixes this bug then we can consider going back to an older EE for these bundles.
Comment 5 Thomas Watson CLA 2009-04-27 14:45:01 EDT 
Marking as fixed.  I released the latest OSGi API for the M7 build.  A new bug will be open if we need changes during the RC builds.
