I am currently facing some problems using a jaxrs:client in blueprint.
The first problem is that org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.client.Client is not
found at runtime.
I had to add this to the maven bundle plugin to make it work:
<Import-Package>
org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.client,
*
</Import-Package>
As far as I know this should not be necessary. So this might be a bug in
the cxf blueprint support.
The next and more severe problem is that my service interface is not found:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: interface
net.lr.tutorial.karaf.cxf.personservice.person.PersonService is not
visible from class loader
It looks like the JAXRS client factory does not use the classloader of
my bundle. My bundle correctly imports the package so it should be visible.
You can easily recreate error using my Karaf cxf tutorial:
Checkout the project https://github.com/cschneider/Karaf-Tutorial
The project you need is at: cxf/personservice
Run mvn clean install there.
Then start karaf 2.3.2 and execute the following commands:
features:chooseurl cxf 2.7.5
features:install http cxf
install -s
mvn:net.lr.tutorial.karaf.cxf.personservice/personservice-model/1.0-SNAPSHOT
install -s
mvn:net.lr.tutorial.karaf.cxf.personservice/personservice-server/1.0-SNAPSHOT
install -s
mvn:net.lr.tutorial.karaf.cxf.personservice/personservice-proxy-rest/1.0-SNAPSHOT
The proxy bundle will be in blueprint status failed and the stacktrace
will look like this:

Is there anything I am doing wrong or is this really a CXF bug?
