Description

As all annotation values have to be provided as constants (e.g. in https://docs.osgi.org/javadoc/r6/residential/org/osgi/service/component/annotations/Component.html#property()) and conversion from Enum to String cannot be resolved at compile time all enum values of ResourceChange.ChangeType should also be provided as String constants.

Something like this does not work

@Component(property = { ResourceChangeListener.CHANGES+"="+ResourceChange.ChangeType.REMOVED.toString()}
)
