Hi Ahmed,

No OSGi is about dynamically assembling applications from a group of plugins.

http://www.osgi.org/

talks a lot about mobile applications because the consortium is focused on the mobile market but the framework has had wide acceptance outside the mobile market. There are even some talking about adopting OSGi as a backend assembly mechanism for servers.

OSGi is the backend of eclipse, it is how all the plugins that are loaded find each other and work together.

HTH,

Felix is an OSGi impl currently incubating.

OSGi has been very successful as the Eclipse runtime plugin management framework.
Thoughts?
Sorry, but AFAIK Felix is about Service Injection et co., so it's more something like HiveMind, Spring, etc. IMHO this is NOT what Cayenne Modeler is missing (not even the Cayenne Framework itself, as it works fantastic even without injection).

Ahmed.
