Complying to the OSGi enterprise specification
Hi,
Since from the beginning of my OpenEJB exploration adventures, there has been a decent OSGi integration in the project,
I was thinking about whether we should invest some effort to be OSGi-enteprise compliant, why not the first one to achieve
this.
The latest OSGi-enterprise spec is from March, version 4.2, and it includes standards for JTA, JMX, JNDI, JPA, Web, etc.
integration within OSGi. I still cannot see any EJB-OSGi specification, but probably it is on its way to emerge.
So naturally comes the question whether OpenEJB could be modified/extended so that it fits these new standards.
I am a very newbie in the community, so maybe some OpenEJB-OSGi experienced guys can comment on this, whether
it is possible at all, what would be the effort to do this, and so on (maybe we are even there already ?).
This topic could affect the OpenEJB-Tomcat integration project as well, since there could be questions about how OpenEJB
should work together with a bundlized Tomcat (for example, Tomcat as part of the RFC 66 implementation of SpringSource).
I will definitely like to get some opinions on this.
Cheers,
Krum.

Certainly not. I'm just asking if it makes much sense for OpenEJB to try to
implement a compliant OSGi Enterprise platform. Given Geronimo already
does that, I'm not sure why the effort would be duplicated.
I'm not so involved in OpenEJB, so i'd rather let the real developers answer
that.
If OpenEJB can fit nicely in an OSGi Enterprise platform, that would be
awesome. What i was thinking is that it may not be the role of OpenEJB to
actually deliver the full platform.
Just my 2 cents.

Just to be clear on this and to more directly answer the original
question: So you would say everything OSGi-specific should go upstream
into the Geronimo code-base right?

Yes, it is... All those + Blueprint + and osgi applications (i.e. .eba).

Isn't that what Geronimo is doing already ?
