Andreas,

thank for you answer. I suppose you wanted to point me to the carbon framework (http://wso2.org/projects/carbon) mentioned in this thread? It's a nice thing, but for me, it's simply "too much". All I want is a naked Axis2 runtime running in my OSGi container. For my purposes it doesn't make sense to simply introduce another framework as this will produce an even larger distributable with features I don't need and potentially bugs and problems I don't need too, not to mention the time I've to put in to fully understand what the framework does.

So, I still would be glad to hear about some easy-to-use OSGi compatible Axis2 distribution.

Kind regards,
        Daniel

Hi Folks!

I'm trying to simply integrate Axis2 into an Eclipse Equinox OSGi container.

So far I found no easy way to do that. I think the ideal way is that there was a How-To somewhere which says: install file A, B, C, ... from Axis2-src distribution and you're done. Is there a tutorial like that which I missed? Even more ideal would be an OBR (OSGi bundle repository) repository holding the "main" bundle and all it's dependencies, so that one could install it by running "obr install" when on Apache Felix or after deploying some OBR
implementation into Equinox.

I tried to other ways to install it, which also failed. First one was using an OSGi-Axis2 distribution from the Knopflerfish project which simply failed because of invalid bundle headers (syntax errors and missing imports). Second one was to try to install it after downloading the src- distribution of Axis2, running complete build of it with Maven and trying to install the individual packages by hand. This is very tedious as there's no easy way to find out which bundle/jar imports/exports the packages needed and so on. Is
there maybe a tutorial for that?

Are there any plans for a Maven target that puts all relevant packages into one directory so that OSGi users simply use all jars in it to get up and
running?

I would be very thankful for some help on this (somewhat tedious) problem!

Kind regards, Daniel
