Hello Thomas,

Thanks a lot, now it works!

The eclipse.security is only used by the

it sets the java.security.manager to the value of eclipse.security.  
Later when the Framework launches it actually will install the  
SecurityManager to enable security.


When running without the launcher you need to do a bit more work to  
setup your policy file. You can use a very simple policy which  
grants AllPermissions to everything like this ...


## BEGIN POLICY FILE ##
grant {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};
## END POLICY FILE ##

You would then launch equinox with the following command:

java - 
Djava 
.security 
.manager 
=org.eclipse.osgi.framework.internal.core.FrameworkSecurityManager - 
Djava.security.policy=policy -jar  
org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.0.v20080107.jar -console


The java.security.manager property tells the VM what security  
manager to load. The java.security.policy property tells the VM what  
policy to load to grant permissions. Note that the permissions  
granted to the bundles installed into the framework are controled by  
the PermissionAdmin and ConditionalPermissionAdmin services. By  
default these services will grant all bundles AllPermissions.

[equinox-dev] Equinox with OSGi security?

2008-01-24 Thread Marcel Offermans
I would like to run Equinox with OSGi security (PermissionAdmin,  
ConditionalPermissionAdmin) enabled.


I read the quickstart guide here:

http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/documents/quickstart.php

I even found some reference to a property to set that should enable  
security:


- 
Declipse 
.security 
=org.eclipse.osgi.framework.internal.core.FrameworkSecurityManager


However, if I just run the Equinox framework like described in the  
quickstart guide with that property, I still do not get any security  
related service. Am I missing some piece of documentation here? It  
should not be too hard to run with security, right?


Greetings, Marcel
