How will we support libraries?

[David Jencks <da...@yahoo.com>]

I discovered section EE8.2 in the ee6 overall spec, about support for  
libraries.

The part I'm worried about is EE8.2.4 Resources where it says that  
resources in the library must be accessible to application classes  
using class.getResource() and classloader.getResource() methods.

I don't see how this can be supported in an osgi environment while  
sharing the classes from the library.

Maybe we can do something strange like both convert the library to a  
bundle (so its classes can be shared) and deploy it as a fragment  
bundle associated with the app bundle (so the resource are  
available)????

any more plausible ideas?

thanks
