With its growth, Tuscany also started to have it's SPIs violated by some of these extensions, and some of the boundaries between sub-systems are broken, as there wasn't any enforcement of these boundaries.</P> + +<P> The OSGi model provides a very powerful and flexible framework to develop applications in a modular fashion with a high degree of control over classloading inter-dependencies over modules. An OSGi module (a.k.a bundle) have a manifest file (META-INF\manifest.mf) that contains module information such as "name", "version" and also a list of what packages are being exported, and what packages are being imported from the given bundle, providing ways to easily enforce module boundaries.</P> + +<P> In summary:</P> +<UL> + <LI>Better class loading mechanism for our modules</LI> + <LI>Create clean boundaries between sub-systems</LI> +</UL> + + +<H2><A name="OSGiAwareProgramminginTuscany-TuscanyandOSGi3rdpartydependencies"></A>Tuscany and OSGi - 3rd party dependencies</H2> + +<P> Currently we are wrapping the 3rd party dependencies as OSGi bundles, but leaving it unpacked (a.k.a folder structure).

We define corresponding Import-Package <BR> +header in the MANIFEST.MF for OSGi, and these get resolved to other bundles <BR> +that export the matching packages. This magic comes from the <BR> +"org.eclipse.pde.core.requiredPlugins" classpath container which is <BR> +contributed by the Eclipse PDE. The classpath container resolves the OSGi <BR> +dependencies such as Import-Package or Required-Bundle and automatically add <BR> +the required bundles to the classpath as we see in Eclipse project under the <BR> +"Plugin Dependencies".</P> + +<P>3) The exported packages come from three types of sources:</P> +<UL> + <LI>System packages (exported by the System Bundle, i.e., org.eclipse.osgi).<BR> +Different JDK levels have different list of system packages, for example, <BR> +javax.xml.stream is not in J2SE-1.5 but in JSEJava-1.6.

The classpath entry will be<BR> +listed as a project under "Plugin Dependencies"</LI> + <LI>3rd-party jars (already as OSGi bundles contributed by the target<BR> +platform). The classpath entry will be listed as a jar under "Plugin <BR> +Dependencies"</LI> +</UL> + + +<P>4) For maven runtime dependencies, there is no corresponding Import-Package <BR> +and the dependencies are used in runtime. Ideally in OSGi, they could be a <BR> +Required-Bundle or a bundle available at runtime. To run the project in JSE <BR> +inside Eclipse, we generate an explicit classpath entry.</P> + +<P>5) For maven test dependencies, there are two types: one is for test <BR> +compilation and the other for test runtime. For the first type, we use <BR> +optional Import-Package to pull in the dependencies if the same project has <BR> +the compile dependency for the same artifact. Otherwise, we generate an <BR> +explicit classpath entry for JSE testing.</P> + +<P>6) For test cases which require extra dependencies in addition to the <BR> +compile/provided/runtime dependencies for the main code, they probably <BR> +should not be unit tests.
