Cannot import a package more than once "org.richfaces.component"

[Beta User]

I created a very simple SpringSource AP Bundle Project in Eclipse com.test.web, and import RichFaces library. The MANIFEST.MF is

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0
Bundle-Name: Web Bundle
Bundle-Description: TEST
Bundle-SymbolicName: com.test.web
Import-Library: org.richfaces;version="3.1.4.GA"
Platform-ModuleType: Web
Web-ContextPath: test

Two richfaces bundles are automatically added to bundle dependencies. Very cool.

But when run the project in SpringSource AP Server inside Eclipse, got
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Cannot import a package more than once "org.richfaces.component"

The log:

[2008-05-27 21:59:35.627] nection(4)-192.168.0.100 <SPFF0002I> Wrote dump file "D:SpringS2APspringsource-ap-1.0.0.beta4serviceabilitydump2008-05-27_21-59-31.dump"

Both com.springsource.org.richfaces-3.1.4.GA.jar and com.springsource.org.richfaces-impl-3.1.4.GA.jar export package org.richfaces.component with same version 3.1.4.GA, and seems that caused problem in OSGi container.

If remove Import-Library and try to import this package directly
Import-Package: org.richfaces.component;version="3.1.4.GA"

Eclipse reports error:
Multiple package exports found for org.richfaces.component [3.1.4.GA, ?) found

I'm using S2AP 1.0.0beta4. Did anyone get RichFaces library working before? Thanks.

Hi,

This looks like a problem with the RichFaces bundles that are in the Enterprise Bundle Repository. Both the richfaces and the richfaces-impl bundles export the org.richfaces.component package, i.e. the package is split across the two bundles.

I've opened an issue to address this: http://issuetracker.springsource.com/browse/BRITS-53

Regards,
Andy

One solution to this problem in the interim is to make the richfaces-impl bundle a fragment of the richfaces bundle. This way the split package will not cause a problem.
