Description

Groovy bundle cannot be used directly in a flexible OSGi environment due to:

osgi> diag 24
initial@reference:file:org.codehaus.groovy_1.5.6.jar/ [24]
Missing required bundle antlr_0.0.0.
Missing required bundle org.objectweb.asm_0.0.0.
Missing optionally required bundle org.apache.ant_0.0.0.
Missing optionally required bundle org.apache.commons.cli_0.0.0.
Missing optionally required bundle org.junit_0.0.0.

Groovy Require-Bundle manifest lines should be replaced with (simplification)

Import-Package: antlr, org.objectweb.asm, org.apache.ant;resolution:="optional", org.apache.commons.cli;resolution:="optional", org.junit;resolution:="optional"

Currently it's impossible to use other bundles that export the same packages (i.e. from SpringSource Enterprise Bundle repository) or wrapped packages.

Using Import-Package will make Groovy one-step further of "OSGification"
