Barrie Treloar commented on MECLIPSE-418:
-----------------------------------------
There is nothing about what versions of OSGi the plugin supports, so I am
assuming it at least supports OSGi 3 and probably 2.
h2. From the specs
h3. Version 2
Manifest header (named "Bundle-Name") identifying the bundle's name.
No information about whether it is mandatory.
Bundle-SymbolicName not supported.
h3. Version 3
(same as Version 2)
No information about whether it is mandatory.
Bundle-SymbolicName not supported.
h3. Version 4
Bundle-Name:
The Bundle-Name header defines a readable name for this bundle. This
should be a short, human-readable name that can contain spaces.
Bundle-SymbolicName
The Bundle-SymbolicName manifest header is a mandatory header
A bundle gets its unique Bundle-SymbolicName from the developer (The
Bundle-Name manifest header provides a human-readable name for a bundle
and is therefore not replaced by this header).
Therefore the patch as provided has not been applied.
Instead either Bundle-Name or Bundle-SymbolicName must be present for the
bundle to be installed.
Unit tests have been created and refactored for easier to reading.
> Goal install-plugins looks for "Bundle-Name" to check whether, a jar is a
> bundle. But "Bundle-Name" is an optional parameter. "Bundle-SymbolicName"
> instead is mandatory.

> Key: MECLIPSE-418
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-418
> Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: OSGi, Manifest
> Affects Versions: 2.5
> Environment: Java 6, Maven 2.0.8
> Reporter: Robert Radkiewicz
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: Bundle-SymbolicName.patch
>
>
> After the
> "Osgi Service Platform Core Specification Release 4, Version 4.1"
> the parameter "Bundle-Name" in the MANIFEST.MF is only a optional parameter.
> In the "InstallPluginsMojo" this parameter is checked, to decide whether this
> jar is an osgi-bundle or not.
> The use of "Bundle-SymbolicName" would be more stable, because it is
> mandatory.
