Hi Christian,
I could move forward a little bit. But now I'm facing the following issue.
[2012-03-01 15:17:02,983] INFO
{org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanDefinitionReader} - Loading

So it looks like spring framework has not been able to
load org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spring.NamespaceHandler class or it doesn't see
the spring.handlers file. But my cxf bundle has the spring.handlers file in
META-INF and it has the org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spring.NamespaceHandler class
as well.
Do you have any idea about whats going on here?
Actually we are trying to include CXF in our existing Equinox environment.
Therefore moving to some other OSGi container is not an option for us. I
tried to download the Talend Services Factory from [1]. But looks like it's
no longer there. Do I have to download Talend ESB?
Thanks,
~Isuru
