It sounds like the Knopflerfish OSGi plugin doesn't like embedded jars,

This is not really the best place to resolve this, as this is the
general
OSGi mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be more appropriate.
That said, you might want to try creating a new plugin (PDE) project
using Eclipse 3.2 (without KF OSGi plugin!) or perhaps a new Java
project (again without the KF plugin) using the instructions at:
http://www.aqute.biz/Snippets/SetupEclipse
I've successfully built and deployed bundles containing jars, so it
is definitely possible, but I've only done this using Eclipse / Bnd.
I am glad for 2 things: firstly I did managed to explain my problem
briefly and secondly you provided enough information to orientate me.
So to Sum up
* I have sent an email at knopflerfish team, let's see what they are
going to answer.
* In general 3rd party libraries can be used inside a bundle in
three ways:
o If only they are stand alone bundles themselves
o If only I bundlize them using the maven bundle & the scripts
<http://wiki.ops4j.org/confluence/display/ops4j/Pax+Construct>
you provided
o If only I enter the Bundle-Classpath directive at my
manifest file and not using the knopflerfish plugin
(considering the recent conclusions)
Am I missing something?

Something to mention.
Most people that have the same problem bundlize their third party
libraries as independent bundles!!!
http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t54726.html
So I conclude, that bundlizing an existing lib is the most common way.
Xmm.....well just mentioning. it.
