I'm not aware of anyone trying it on Felix recently. I think it would be valuable to try it and report on how it works. I suspect Pascal and/or Ian would have more useful thoughts on this, but I believe they are both away on holiday this week.

Sent by: [email protected] Hi John, Thanks for the info. Speaking only about simpleconfigurator for the moment, has anyone tested it out on Felix recently (e.g. as part of p2-on-Felix efforts)? Would there be any desire/community value in (e.g. me) doing that and reporting results somehow/somewhere?

Simpleconfigurator.manipulator requires frameworkadmin. There was a time in the past when we had prototypes of frameworkadmin for Felix and Knopplerfish but those were abandoned. The purpose was always for the frameworkadmin API to remain generic, and then have separate implementations per framework.

Sent by: [email protected] Although simpleconfigurator has no 'p2' in its namespace it is maintained by the p2 team. So this may be a better question for p2-dev. That being said I know that simple configurator has a goal to not depend on anything out side of the framework. It is driven by the content of bundles.info. The bundles.info file is managed by the rest of p2 (or anything else, simpleconfigurator does not care who manages that file as long as it uses the the expected syntax/format). Others from p2 may be able to point you to some efforts from a while back to run p2 on other frameworks besides Equinox.

Sent by: [email protected] Hi Folks, A couple of questions about simpleconfigurator (and simpleconfigurator manipulator): 1) I see from a casual look at the dependencies that it only imports org.osgi packages...does this mean that SC/SCM can run on other frameworks (e.g. Felix)? 2) I assume that simple configurator depend upon FrameworkAdmin service...is that right? What other services does it depend upon? 3) Is there a web/wiki page that has docs WRT these questions and/or others? I found [1], but it's maybe a little dated (?) thanksinadvance, Scott [1] http://wiki.eclipse.org/Configurator _______________________________________________ equinox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/equinox-dev _______________________________________________ equinox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/equinox-dev _______________________________________________ equinox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/equinox-dev _______________________________________________ equinox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/equinox-dev
