Most notably these are the PersistenceManager classes along with their dependencies. So this provides some issues with setting up the bundle. In addition there might be requirements to flexibly add LoginModule(s) in OSGi style using the OSGi service registry. This is not available from the jackrabbit-core library and we have added support for this in Sling. > JR as OSGi bundle to provide RepositoryFactory service Not sure, whether this is of importance in an OSGi framework: The embedded repository is exposed as an OSGi service in the OSGi service registry. Use is as simple as getting the repository from the service registry. The embedded repository bundle is itself ensuring the repository is started. It is conceivable to also provide RepositoryFactory service, but there has not been such a requirement yet (maybe also because this is new in JCR 2). > JR remotely with webdav or API Providing remote access to the repository embedded in an OSGi framework is actually very easy: The WebDAV component is installed as an OSGi bundle and by means of the OSGi HttpService exposes the repository. We have done this with the Jackrabbit WebDAV bundle in Sling. Regards Felix
