Hi,

When you run with eclipse configuration do you specify the –console option? If 
it is not specified, the behavior would be exactly as you describe, even if the 
console bundle and the three gogo bundles are included in the run configuration.
If you set -Dosgi.console.enable.builtin=true, you actually are not using the 
new console, but the old, pre-gogo shell.

If you want to start equinox with console in this way java -jar 
equinox-SDK-3.8RC4/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.0.v20120529-1548.jar –console 
you have to add a configuration/config.ini file with 
osgi.bundles=<equinox_console_and_gogo_bundles> . In this way the framework 
will start with the new console bundle and the three gogo bundles and you will 
have the new console.

Regards,
Lazar

Ok, I finally got it working, with some debugging that lead me to learn you 
need:

-Dosgi.console.enable.builtin=true

(or set as a Framework property) in order to get a console.

However, unlike previous versions (pre-juno) there is no base shell whatsoever. 
This means that you cannot interactively install the more advanced gogo shell 
from the command line.

This does nothing:
java -jar equinox-SDK-3.8RC4/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.0.v20120529-1548.jar 
-console

This does nothing:
java -jar equinox-SDK-3.8RC4/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.0.v20120529-1548.jar 
-Dosgi.console.enable.builtin=true

The second scenario which is the "new and improved" configuration, which won't 
actually do anything until there is actually a console bundle implementation 
available, but you can't install the console bundle(s) because there is no 
shell.

Wouldn't this make bootstrapping a bare instance impossible?

Can someone correct me on this? Maybe I've missed something.

Sincerely,
