[R7] Simple way of including specific R7 packages

[dleangen]

Hi Peter,

Is there a way to include a specific R7 package in my enRoute workspace?

The reason I ask is: I have considered attempting to update to R7 in enRouteV2, but each time I open it up, it ends up turning into something pretty big.

I just want to be able to use a few packages (like R7 Promises, Converter...) without having to undertake a multi-day job.

Blacklisting is for bundles, not packages. I don't want to blacklist the entire enRoute base API. I just want to use specific packages from R7.

Is that possible? Or am I asking for trouble?

Cheers,
=David

Just for info, I tried playing around with Import-Package:

Import-Package: \
	!org.osgi.util.function;version=1.0,\
	org.osgi.util.function;version=1.1,\
	!org.osgi.util.promise;version=1.0,\
	org.osgi.util.promise;version=1.1,\
	*

Sadly, that did not work. Eclipse still references the 1.0 version of the package.

Did you try to create a new version of the enroute base api? For each OSGi API there is now a new single jar. You can always put this one in front of the current base API. Sigh, I really need to find time to set this up :-( Kind regards, Peter Kriens

Sorry, not in front of my machine right now, so my question may be extra dumb... I tried to figure out how the api was constructed. Did you just copy the contents into the base api project? What do you mean by “put it in front”? Once I get it, I should be able to be more helpful. 😀 =David (mobile)

I carefully constructed a -buildpath and the even more carefully exported the proper packages. See the osgi.enroute.base.api project. I just made sure that all metadata in the base api was perfect. The distro is then the second problem but we now have tools to help.

Thanks for the hints Peter.

I'll try to take another look soon to see if I can figure out how that works. Right now I'm caught up in a few urgent tasks.

Cheers,

Hi @pkriens,

I spent a few more unproductive hours trying to figure out the magic that makes this work, but was unsuccessful. If I can see even one successful example by you I'm sure I could figure it out, and could help include some other R7 packages. :-)

Cheers,

I try to find a few hours this weekend … It has been a bit crazy here this August but all guests are gone now.
