NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix
Hopefully someone can help me with this problem that is stopping me from progressing with Felix ? I have a simple bundle based on the example DictionaryBundle in the examples with the added complexity of an embedded jar file, is this case commons-lang.jar. I can install and start the bundle into Felix when it is run from the command line (java -jar bin/felix.jar) and I can see the embedded jar being extracted in the felix-cache directory etc. In by Activator.start() method I also invoke the bundle code to prove that it works OK. If I write some other code, closely following the patterns described at http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-framework-launching-and-embedding.html#ApacheFelixFrameworkLaunchingandEmbedding-embedding, I find that, when the bundle is started, I get an error: Could not create framework: org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Activator start error in bundle [5].

RE: NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix
OK, so my colleague seems to have a resolution;
1. We have separated the packages of the bundle and the host application and
amended the manifest accordingly:
Bundle-Name: English dictionary
Bundle-Description: A bundle that registers an English dictionary service
Bundle-Vendor: Apache Felix
Bundle-ClassPath: commons-lang-2.3.jar, .
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0
Bundle-Activator: com.bt.test.dictionary.DictionaryActivator
Export-Package: com.bt.test.dictionary

package com.bt.test;
public interface Service {
public boolean checkWord(String word);
}
package com.bt.test.dictionary;

public interface DictionaryService extends Service
{
}
Why this works, I don't fully understand and why the original worked inside the
command line Felix is also a mystery!

Re: NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix
Hi,
Any reason you're not using the standard way to embed OSGi containers
as nicely described there:
http://njbartlett.name/2011/03/07/embedding-osgi.html ? Or are you
stuck with a Java version anterior to 1.6?
Regarding the NCDFE, the error you have says some bundle is trying to
load apache.commons.lang.StringUtils which is not in the available
bundle classloader, since it was not imported in your manifest. I saw
that you put the commons-lang jar in the Bundle-Classpath, but I
believe you must import it anyway (using Import-Package).
Import-Package: org.osgi.framework, com.bt.test, org.apache.commons.lang
HTH,
PS: I don't really get why you refactored DictionaryService into
another Service interface. Sounds useless to me.

RE: NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix
Hi Simon,
Thanks for the link which has some very concise information. Actually my code
does basically follow that exact pattern.
WRT the NCDFE, as I understand it, there should be no need to import packages
for embedded jars and this seems to be confirmed by the fact that the bundle
works without the import.
I agree with the interface refactoring, and I'd like to understand that a
little more, but it seems that packages are considered first class citizens
in osgi? I have refactored again, and removed the extra interface in the bundle
package, but still retained the fact that the host is in a different package
to the bundle.
Regards,
Adrian

Re: NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix
Hi Adrian,
Hm, I'm not entirely sure what the problem is, but it it seems very likely that
the Constants.FRAMEWORK_SYSTEMPACKAGES_EXTRA=com.bt.test; version=1.0.0 you
set has something to do with it, especially because the problem goes away when
your bundle has its own package set to something else. Does your fixed version
still have this, and if so, why?
However, even with this fix, I'm at a loss why this all of a sudden works. Do
you mean the activator exception goes away, or does your test code (where you
get the service) actually work? If so, something else is going on: your service
interface is inside your dictionary bundle, and cannot be seen by the Main
class, not even when you put it on the classpath (again, something with
importing and exporting). In this situation, I would expect a
classcastexception.
As a general tip, I would try stripping out as much code as possible to find
your problem. To do your testing, you can probably get away with about five
lines of code, something like
FrameworkFactory factory = (FrameworkFactory)
Class.forName(org.apache.felix.framework.FrameworkFactory).newInstance();
Bundle framework = factory.newFramework(null);
framework.start();
Bundle bundle = framework.getBundleContext().installBundle(new
File(/tmp/bundles/dictionaryBundle.jar).toURL().toString());
bundle.start();
This allows you to study the embedding behavior quite well.
By the way, you are right about the do-not-import-when-on-bundle-classpath:
there is no need to import anything you have in your own bundle (unless you
also export it).

OK, so my colleague seems to have a resolution;
1. We have separated the packages of the bundle and the host application and
amended the manifest accordingly:
Bundle-Name: English dictionary
Bundle-Description: A bundle that registers an English dictionary service
Bundle-Vendor: Apache Felix
Bundle-ClassPath: commons-lang-2.3.jar, .
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0
Bundle-Activator: com.bt.test.dictionary.DictionaryActivator
Export-Package: com.bt.test.dictionary
Import-Package: org.osgi.framework, com.bt.test
package com.bt.test;
public interface Service {
public boolean checkWord(String word);
}
package com.bt.test.dictionary;
import com.bt.test.Service;
public interface DictionaryService extends Service
{
}
Why this works, I don't fully understand and why the original worked inside
the command line Felix is also a mystery!

Re: NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix
: NoClassDefFoundError when embedding felix You're not really giving enough information. How about showing us your manifest file and the contents of your bundle JAR file? - richard On 4/4/11 7:35, adrian.p.sm...@bt.com wrote: Hopefully someone can help me with this problem that is stopping me from progressing with Felix ? I have a simple bundle based on the example DictionaryBundle in the examples with the added complexity of an embedded jar file, is this case commons-lang.jar. I can install and start the bundle into Felix when it is run from the command line (java -jar bin/felix.jar) and I can see the embedded jar being extracted in the felix-cache directory etc. In by Activator.start() method I also invoke the bundle code to prove that it works OK. If I write some other code, closely following the patterns described at http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-framework-launching-and-embedding.html#ApacheFelixFrameworkLaunchingandEmbedding-embedding, I find that, when the bundle is started, I get an error: Could not create framework: org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Activator start error in bundle [5].
