[jira] [Comment Edited] (FELIX-5592) Maven bundle plugin does not
support Java 9 Multi-Release jars
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5592?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15931835#comment-15931835 ]

Thanks, I just read that thread. I have no plans to subscribe to the bnd-tools mailing list so I can't comment there. Java 9 is scheduled to be released in a few months. As such Log4j 2 needs to have support in place for that. The spec for multi-release jars is not going to change and if it was going to that would have happened a year or more ago. It sounds like they are sticking their heads in the sand hoping the problem will go away. Instead it is going to get worse. To be honest, supporting Java 9 is a much higher priority to me than supporting OSGi.

> Key: FELIX-5592
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5592
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Maven Bundle Plugin
> Affects Versions: maven-bundle-plugin-3.2.0
> Reporter: Ralph Goers
>
> Log4j 2 currently packages its jars with the maven-bundle-plugin. To support Java 9 we are moving towards using Multi-Release jars to pick up the Java 9 features. However, when the Maven bundle plugin encouters classes in META-INF/versions/9 it emits an error message saying "Classes found in the wrong directory:", which is incorrect for a Multi-Release jar in Java 9.
