Description

DeploymentAdmin is built in such a way, that a deployment package is self-contained. However, in my case, I want to use a ResourceProcessor that is already on the system to process a configuration resource; if I do this, this will give me a DeploymentException.CODE_FOREIGN_CUSTOMIZER.

Just like system property org.apache.felix.deploymentadmin.stopunaffectedbundle can customize the behavior of deployment admin, I propose a new property: org.apache.felix.deploymentadmin.allowforeigncustomizers , which allows ResourceProcessors that are already on the system to process resources in a deployment package. This should not be default behavior, so a system property should be in order.

I will attach a patch for this shortly.
