Alex Boisvert commented on BUILDR-311:
--------------------------------------

Since the values of manifest entries don't have a standard format, how about using more DSL-ish helpers to achieve this?   e.g.,

project("foo").package.manifest = osgi { 
  import_package [{"p1" => {"bundle-version" => "1.1"}},"p2","p3"]
  export_package %w[p1 p2 p3]
}

>             Project: Buildr
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.4
>            Reporter: Antoine Toulme
>            Assignee: Assaf Arkin
>
> I would like to propose an enhancement to buildr on the way the manifest accepts entries.
> Right now you can do:
> project("foo").package.manifest = { "Export-Package" => "p1,p2,p3"}
> Eventually I'd like to do:
> project("foo").package.manifest = { "Export-Package" => %w[p1 p2 p3]}
> Because then I have more length to modulate the array, use an array defined somewhere else.
> I also would like to do:
> project("foo").package.manifest = { "Import-Package" => [{"p1" => {"bundle-version" => "1.1"}},"p2","p3"]}
> which would show like this in the manifest:
> Import-Package: p1;bundle-version:="1.1",p2,p3
> Those subentries definitions are very important wrt to the work I am doing on my plugin.
> I will propose a patch for this, I'd love some feedback if possible.
