             Summary: Consider synthesizing osgi.identity capabilities for bundles without them.
                 Key: ARIES-1077
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-1077
             Project: Aries
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Subsystem
    Affects Versions: 1.0
            Reporter: John Ross


See, for example, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3868.

Aries Subsystems was originally written assuming it will only be run on an OSGi R5 compliant framework implementation. According to the specification, resources (including bundles) must have the osgi.identity capability. If missing, the resource is currently ignored.

I would be reluctant to start adding many workarounds in order to be able to run on non-R5 frameworks, but synthesizing the osgi.identity capability for bundles having a symbolic name should be easy.
