Thank you for clearing that up, it makes much more sense now. With regard to my last post: I'm not entirely sure why we were importing osgi.core, but removed it and implemented your suggestion there; as for the cause though, things are still a little unclear. I used osgi.core as an example in the last post, but we've had this happen with other bundles, including our own when we have multiply versions in repository. I am only using one version of the springsource dm server (1.0.1-RELEASE), and only through Eclipse using the lastest release of the Tooling. The following is an actual example that has cause me some pain:
bundle.dao.impl imports bundle.dao.interfaces;version [1.0.0,2.0.0)
bundle.service.impl imports bundle.dao.interfaces;version [1.0.0,2.0.0)
and in the user repository, there are bundle.dao.interfaces versions 1.0.0.CI-1 and 1.0.0.CI-2.
What keeps happening, is that bundle.dao.impl uses version 1.0.0.CI-2 and bundle.service.impl uses 1.0.0.CI-1. So bundle.service.impl doesn't recognize the dao interfaces exported as services by bundle.dao.impl.
This appears to be a different problem than original post, but also related. Should I start a new thread for this?
