Hi felix dev,
I'm in a situation where I'd like to embed Apache Felix in a host
application. The host application, however is equipped with a security
manager
that does not allow for the creation of a new security manager. This
leads to the following error on startup:

This happens because Felix extends the SecurityManager in
SecurityManagerEx to allow for public access to getClassContext().
I do not see an easy way to overcome this situation. Am I missing
something ?
thanks in advance,
dennis
