[jira] [Commented] (CXF-6703) Generate an OBR index for CXF OSGi runtime

["Christian Schneider (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Christian Schneider commented on CXF-6703:
------------------------------------------

I started working on this now. 

The approach you used to list all transitive dependencies by hand is not feasible I think. The problem is that it will easily diverge from the normal CXF build. So this would always 
mean a lot of work by hand. So I hope we can do this in a simpler way.

I am currently trying to slim down the references to just the CXF ones and allow transitive dependencies to be resolved. For the cases where this fails I will try to work with excludes and adding some deps by hand.

> The new bndtools [bnd-indexer-maven-plugin|https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/tree/master/maven/bnd-indexer-maven-plugin] maven plugin could be used to automatically build and maintain an OBR index for all the OSGi bundles that are needed to bootstrap and run CXF-based projects.
> The bndtools bnd-indexer-maven-plugin operates through a dedicated pom file to generate the index: this pom should be included in the CXF build system.
