Hi, OSGi newbie here. This question is lengthy but I hope it helps people in future.
I want to make a software which provides the feature to install/uninstall plugins. Think of something like Eclipse IDE plugins. The only difference is mine is web-app. I thought of implementing plugins as follows: Whenever a new plugin is installed, new HTTP servlet will be registered at Http Whiteboard. These exposed servlet endpoints will be used by other bundles as well as third-party apps which are present outside. Each plugin will be developed separately as an OSGi bundle. I can use Felix web console to allow the user to install/uninstall bundle of his choice. To verify my approach, I tried to run given OSGi enroute Proxy provider example <https://github.com/osgi/osgi.enroute.examples/tree/e407f783ef7a470875c910a53f45861870b4316f/osgi.enroute.examples.proxycache.provider> from https://github.com/osgi/osgi.enroute.examples. I was able to run it in debug mode from Eclipse IDE but when I exported it to JAR ( tried to do so both from osgi.enroute.examples.proxycache.bndrun and debug.bndrun) and tried to install it through Felix web console, it gave the following error: *Using default permissions for inputstream:proxyCacheApp.jar* *No permissions for inputstream:proxyCacheApp.jar* My questions: 1. Is it feasible to implement my idea using Http Whiteboard? 2. How to give permissions for input steam? 3. Could any point out to working example of Http Whiteboard using OSGi enroute? The tutorial page for this on enroute site is empty ( http://enroute.osgi.org/services/org.osgi.service.http.whiteboard.html) Feel free to guide/criticize/shout at me :) -- Regards, Nikhil Chilwant
