Re: [equinox-dev] service elements in Declaratice Services


Looks like a bug to me. Open a bug here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Equinox

Select the Compendium component and start the summary with [ds].

The schema for the XML only permits a single <service> element. DS should reject the XML as invalid thus ignoring the component description.

Subject: [equinox-dev] service elements in Declaratice Services





Hi All,

I currently prototype a little Equinox app that uses Declarative Services (DS). The DS spec 4.1 says "The service element is optional. ... The service element must have one or more provide elements that define the service interfaces". So, the following XML is syntactically correct and handled well by Equinox DS:

<component name="com.siemens.ct.pm.ui.views.treeView">
   <implementation
       class="com.siemens.ct.pm.ui.views.treeview.TreeView"/>
   <service>
       <provide
           interface="com.siemens.ct.pm.application.service.IViewContribution"/>
       <provide
           interface="com.siemens.ct.pm.model.IPersonListener"/>
   </service>
</component>

However, the following XML is incorrect with regards to the DS spec...

<component name="com.siemens.ct.pm.ui.views.treeView">
   <implementation
       class="com.siemens.ct.pm.ui.views.treeview.TreeView"/>
   <service>
       <provide
           interface="com.siemens.ct.pm.application.service.IViewContribution"/>
   </service>
   <service>
       <provide
           interface="com.siemens.ct.pm.model.IPersonListener"/>
   </service>
</component>

... but Equinox handles it exactly like the above correct XML :)

Now the question is, is this a bug or a feature?
If it is a bug, I can file it...
...but how should Equinox DS react then?

Best regards,

Kai
