I'm launching the felix launcher with: $ java -jar bin/felix.jar
The application contains: app/ app/bin/felix.jar app/bundle/*.jar app/conf/config.properties This application uses JavaFX so I did: $ mv $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/jfxrt.jar $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/ And then I set the property org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra to expose the javafx.* packages to the container. This works appropriately because the jfxrt.jar file is on the system classpath. Now I have a 3rd party jar which is not an OSGi bundle. I used the bnd tool to modify the manifest to contain the needed OSGi meta-data. I verified that it exports the specific packages that I need, placed the jar in the app/bundle directory, and I verified that my bundle imports the same needed packages. I still get a ClassNotFoundException. Is there a way, with the default launcher in felix.jar, to specify some directory that contains non osgi jar files that can be used on the classpath similar to what is being done with the combination of $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/ and the org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra property? I know this is NOT the recommended (or best) way to do this, but I haven't been able to figure out how to make it work the right way. If it helps, I created a project on GitHub that demonstrates the problem I'm having. It is located at https://github.com/axiopisty/scala-actors-javafx-osgi-demo. Thanks, Elliot
