Description

When Apache Aries Blueprint installs a service that points to a [bean] node that has its id attribute specified, it adds an additional metadata entry to the service registry:

osgi.service.blueprint.compname = myBeanId

That information is not automatically added to the Headers section of a generated bundle though, thus preventing some kind of validation offline.

The proposed patch adds the additional metadata at build time.

This is a snippet of a use case that requires this:

  <bean id="mysql-ds" class="com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource">
  </bean> 
  
<service id="sqlDataSourceExporter" ref="mysql-ds" interface="javax.sql.DataSource">
</service>
  

And, in another file:

    <reference id="mysql-db" interface="javax.sql.DataSource" availability="mandatory" component-name="mysql-ds" />
