Description

"osname=win32" in the Bundle-NativeCode entry doe not work, this exception is thrown:org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unresolved constraint in bundle native-lib-windows-x86 [6]: No matching native libraries found.

This osname alias needs to be added to the felix framework. I made some changes according to the OSGI specifications at http://www.osgi.org/Specifications/Reference .
