Figure B.2
How the OSGi Enterprise Specification overlaps with the Compendium and Core Specifica-
tions. Version 4.3 of the Compendium Specification should be a superset of version 4.2 of the Enterprise
Specification.
Table B.1 and figure B.2 list the contents of the Enterprise Specification, and show the
extent of the overlap with the Core and Compendium Specifications. At the time of
writing, version 4.3 of the Core Specification, and versions 4.2 of the Compendium
and Enterprise Specification were released. We expect version 4.3 of the Compen-
dium Specification will also include all the new specifications introduced in version
4.2 of the Enterprise Specification. The focus of this topic is these new specifications,
rather than the entire contents of the Enterprise Specification.
Table B.1
The contents of the OSGi Enterprise Specification. Many of the capabilities of the Enterprise
Specification are also included in the Compendium and Core Specifications. The first version
of the Compendium Specification was version 4.0, and the first version of the Enterprise
Specification was version 4.2.
