Analysis
Overview
Depends on the chosen plug-in framework. We need a library that will reduce the effort of working with plug-ins.
Task requirements
- The library should have capabilities for
- Listing extension points of a given plug-in
- Listing extensions implementing a given extension point.
- Directly extending the extension points
- Extending an extension point, inheriting the given one.
- Easy instantiation of extension classes
- Getting plug-in meta information
- Find places in the application where it can be used and integrate it.
Task result
The result must be source code.
How to demo
Show an use of each of the required capabilities.
Design
The chosen plug-in framework is Apache Felix.
Implementation
For now we have fake implementation for starting the modules.
We will do the real Felix integration in the next revision of the task. The current code can be easily converted into that.
