osgi bundle service

stanislav_lvovsky — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 13:15:33 GMT

Hi All,

I want to create an OSGI bundle with service and deploy it to the cloud.

I want that my second application be able to use the bundle service.

Is it possible to implement such scenario in the cloud ?

If yes, is there a simple example of how to create OSGI bundle and deploy it to the cloud ?

Regards,

Slavik.

Hi Stanislav,

Yes, you can deploy OSGi bundles on the cloud. You can easily create a Web Application Bundle (WAB) by adding the OSGi facet to a Dynamic Web Project. Here are step by step instructions how to do this: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Libra/FAQ#Create_new_Web_Application_Bundle.

You can also create additional OSGi bundles. When deploying the WAB any other OSGi bundle that is referred via Import-Package or Required-Bundle statement in the WAB's MANIFEST.MF will be deployed too.
