OSGi Bundles for gs-collections

[mmilinkov]

Would you consider creating OSGi bundles for gs-collections?

(Donald Raab told me to open the issue here.)

I would add my vote for OSGi. There is very little reason to make non-OSGi compliant JARs these days.

The current master contains instructions to generate OSGi metadata, but it is not correct yet. Fixed in this PR: #17

It would btw be even better to combine API and impl in a single bundle, where only the API packages are exported. Currently it is necessary to export all implementation classes as well, which is not really ideal. Maybe create a separate POM for this?

Hi.
Any status update on this issue?
When using gs-collections together with "reactor" in an OSGi environment it would really help to have a working OSGi bundle.

If you're willing to find-replace com.gs.collections. with org.eclipse.collections., then you can use the new Eclipse Collections library. The artifacts on Maven Central already have OSGi metadata.
