Find a way to make it easy to run the samples outside the Aries source tree
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ARIES-265
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-265
Project: Aries
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: zoe slattery
Assignee: zoe slattery
Each sample requires a platform assembly so that it can be run. The assembly
usually comprises:
(1) A minimal OSGi framework
(2) Just the Aries components required to run the sample.
The samples each have an assembly project that pulls this platform together in
the projects' target directory and creates the configuration files needed to
load the platform and aries jars.
At release time all that the platform assembly produces is a pom, this can be
executed by a user outside the Aries build tree and it will install the
required jars in a target directory. Unfortunately, without the configuration
files, the user still has a fair amount of 'file install'ing to do before the
platform will actually run.
The most useful thing we could supply would be a zip and/or tar file which
contains the assembly pom, configuration files and legal files.
The user can simply unzip, java -jar osgi-blah -console, to get a fully
configured platform on which to run the sample.
