that would be another nice thing, but the more important one is that i
can work with maven-generated bundles inside eclipse an hook in
eclipse's OSGi runtime environment. these days is not able to work with
it: when generating bundle with embedded dependencies these are put
inside target/classes but this layout is not accepted by OSGi eclipse.
it always wants to have the dependencies under <rootFolderOfProject>.
because of this i always need to copy the embedded dependencies from
target/classes to <rootFolderOfProject> and do a refresh inside eclipse.
it would be much more convenient if m2eclipse could do following behind
the scenes when starting or debugging an application:
1) generate a bundle
2) embedding dependencies so eclipse OSGi environment can find them.

I see. So, you basically need a wizard or maybe a Maven archetype to
generate preconfigured project for such configuration? Or there is
something else I missed?

oh yes, no problem. for that i do cite a post i did on a felix
mailinglist, which should show what i would like to have featured in
m2eclipse. in case it is unclear just tell, i then will go into more
details.
----POST-CITATION-START-----
i managed to generate a bundle which lets itself install and start on
commandline osgi-container. for the developing phase of course i
would like to use OSGi runtime inside eclipse IDE, so debugging is
possible and implement/run cycle is short.
i am building my bundle with maven bundle-plugin and following settings:
<instructions>
...
<Embed-Transitive>true</Embed-Transitive>
<Embed-Dependency>*;groupId=!org.eclipse.equinox;inline=false</Embed-Dependency>
...
</instructions>
basically running my osgi bundle inside eclipse works if i add
generated manifest to <rootFolderOfProject>/META-INF and if i layout
embedded dependencies (see settings above) in <rootFolderOfProject>
too (as stated in generated MANIFEST.MF). of course this manual
actions are too much and hence not doable when developing.
has anybody experience/suggestions in getting the bundle for release
right and working inside eclipse IDE with same maven-bundle-plugin
settings (dependencies are referenced correctly and correct path of
MANIFEST.MF is set when doing RunAs...->OSGiStartup)?
----POST-CITATION-END---
it would be great if m2eclipse would tell my osgi bundle settings to
eclipse's OSGi platform, so no manual interactions or workarounds are
neccessary.
