Hi Charles,
Agree for that.
However I think in a short term enhancement. I think that we need to
design something more generic and flexible.
I already quickly discussed of that with Guillaume.
I propose to think about Karaf profiles. A profile is based on instance
but enhanced and improved.
For instance, we can see the following profiles:
1/ micro kernel: corresponding to the minimal dist
2/ default: corresponding to the "normal" current dist
3/ mobile: for android
4/ enterprise: providing enterprise application server based on
enterprise features/arirs
5/ esb: corresponding to ServiceMix/swordfish
I have to think deeper around to design it. Maybe we can start a wiki
page to brainstorm about it.
Regards
JB

Hi,
I would like to start a discussion concerning the idea to generate
during assembly of Apache Karaf a version who can be run on Google
Android platform (Mobile Device).
The existing process is quite tedious and could be simplified
export PATH=<path-to-android>/tools:$PATH
cd bin
dx --dex --output=classes.dex felix.jar
aapt add felix.jar classes.dex
Prepare the bundle JARS:
cd bundle
dx --dex --output=classes.dex org.apache.felix.shell-1.0.0.jar
aapt add org.apache.felix.shell-1.0.0.jar classes.dex
dx --dex --output=classes.dex org.apache.felix.shell.tui-1.0.0.jar
aapt add org.apache.felix.shell.tui-1.0.0.jar classes.dex
dx --dex --output=classes.dex EnglishDictionary.jar
aapt add EnglishDictionary.jar classes.dex
dx --dex --output=classes.dex FrenchDictionary.jar
aapt add FrenchDictionary.jar classes.dex
dx --dex --output=classes.dex SpellChecker.jar
aapt add SpellChecker.jar classes.dex
Transfer all of them to the emulator (note that you need some kind of
unix-like shell, such as the Mac OS X terminal or Linux):
cd osgi-android
emulator&
find * -type f -exec adb push {} /data/felix/{} \;
Some maven plugins exist and could be used to generate DEX files
required by Davik Virtual Machine -->

Running Apache Karaf on Android platform could be of great interest as
it could allow the deployment of ActiveMQ and usage in offline mode on
Mobile.
What do you think about that ?
