features -> subsystems?

    Jean-Baptiste

    Can you please clarify what are karaf plans
    as it relates to features vs subsystems?
    http://blog.osgi.org/2012/06/core-release-5-and-enterprise-release-5.html
    * will features be replaced by subsystems?
    * will features continue as independent?
    * will they co-exist
    * etc.

    Thank you,

    Andrei

Hi David,

Agree, it's not the same purpose/scope.

The scope of karat features is also much much smaller than subsystems since karat features don't provide isolation.

Hi Andrei,

the first plan is to coexist.

It's the same plan for P2 repositories.

Features is the central and main provisioning for Karaf: we don't plan 
to move to something else for now.
However, provide "bridges" between others systems (like subsystems and 
P2) is interesting (both in the runtime and in the karaf-maven-plugin).

The scope coverage of the Karaf features is "larger" (at least for now) 
than subsystem. For instance, the ConfigAdmin/ConfigFile support is very 
limited in subsystems comparing to Karaf Features.

Regards
JB
