Hello Jürgen, > We want to use an OSGI framework in eCos. I see 2 solutions: > - or run a JVM on ecos. What about MiKa (previously Wonka) or Kaffe? - or a C version of OSGI > Does anyone has done OSGI on eCos?
Mika would have to be re-ported to eCos, the port made by Andrea Scian in 2004 will have been subject to severe bit-rot I'm afraid. But we can do that for you if you have a bit of consulting budget. Once that is working your OSGi problem is solved - plenty of people are using Knopflerfish or Felix on top of Mika, so you shouldn't encounter (m)any bugs. Note that I am based in Antwerp, so Izegem counts as "international". ;-) > - I only find for OSGI: > http://sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2004-07/msg00223.html Yup, that's Andrea. > - And for MiKa: > http://sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2010-09/msg00011.html Didn't see this at the time. It does bring up one thing you will have to think about, which is how your native and Java components will work together in the single eCos "application". I favour a Java-centric approach in which Mika *is* the application and all the native code resides in bundles, but there may be reasons why you can't do this. Similarly for threads - if threads launched by the VM have to interact with threads launched by native code then things can get a bit messy. > - Kaffe on ecos 1.3.1, and the download link seems not to be valid on http://ecos.sourceware.org/contrib.html Don't think much is happening in the Kaffe world since Dalibor took a job with Sun.
