Re: Content of Kar Files

[Jean-Baptiste Onofre]

Hi,

I guess you are using the karaf-maven-plugin to create the kar (you can always 
create the kar by hand).

If a bundle or feature is flagged as dependency=true, it should not be included 
(or you have true).

Content of Kar Files

[Paul Fraser]

Hi,

When creating a kar file for a feature that has prerequisites, all bundles of the prerequisite are 
included in the kar.


This can result in large kar files when the kar feature only adds little to the overall system. Most 
of the requirements of the new kar are already in the karaf system folder.


Is there a way to not include bundles in a kar that are already in the karaf 
system folder?

prerequisite and dependency attributes on the feature make no difference.
