[rt-pmc] Question regarding a "works with" CQ

["Kirchev, Lazar" <l.kirchev@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

CQ7126 (https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7126) requests “works with” dependency on Hibernate from the Virgo project.

 

The usage is  for integration with the hibernate persistence provider. For this Virgo needs to extend one of its classes and implement an interface from it.

 

Hibernate is necessary only at build time, to compile the classes, and is not distributed with Virgo, neither in binary, nor in source. However, Hibernate can be used by Virgo applications.

 

Is it necessary in this case the Hibernate source code to be attached to the CQ? I think this is similar to https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4371 , which does not have source attached to it (discussed in http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/rt-pmc/msg01697.html ).

 

Kind regards,

Lazar Kirchev
