If it is a fix or change to the code of org.apache.jasper.glassfish, then you only option is to work with the original project and have them fix their code and have a new maintenance release.

To be clear, though, there are times when we in Orbit can made a mistake in the way we "OSGi-ify" the bundle and those are fixes we can make directly in Orbit. jasper.glassfish is a current case,
see bug 389510.

Haha, yeah. That's my ticket!

However, I would like to propose a change to the underlying library such that Jasper would allow injection or deceleration of a "custom" JavaFileManager factory.

This way it would be a cinch to allow it to support an OSGi aware (or any custom) JavaFileManager thus avoiding most of the workarounds currently needed to make JSP compilation work in OSGi.

Hello All,

How do I go about getting a change into an orbit bundle? Case is for org.apache.jasper.glassfish.

As I understand it, orbit bundles come from an upstream source, so I'm assuming technically that Eclipse doesn't have the source to change. 

So, how do you handle bugs or change requests in those?

Thanks,
