Hi Nadir,
what runtime do you use for OSGi? If you are just using OSGi on the
server then I recommend using Apache Karaf. We have cxf features for
Karaf that allow to install cxf very easily. I have a tutorial at
http://liquid-reality.de/display/liquid/2011/12/22/Karaf+Tutorial+Part+4+-+CXF+Services+in+OSGi
.
If you have a plain OSGi container like Felix or Equinox then the DOSGi
mutli bundle distro is the easiest way to start. There is no slimmed
down version for jaxrs though so you have to try to remove bundles and
see if it still works. You can use karaf though and check the bundles
installed there to get an idea which bundles you need. In karaf you need
at least the feature cxf-jaxrs.
If you use Eclipse RCP then again the DOSGi distro is currently the best
way to start. I will start an effort to create a P2 repo for cxf soon.
Then it will be much easier to install cxf in Eclipse RCP.
Best regards
Christian

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what are the minimum bundles required to provide JAX-RS feature in DOSGi ? I
don't really care for "OSGi Remote Services Specification" implementation. The 1.4.0
multi-bundle
distribution<http://repository.apache.org/service/local/repositories/releases/content/org/apache/cxf/dosgi/cxf-dosgi-ri-multibundle-distribution/1.4.0/cxf-dosgi-ri-multibundle-distribution-1.4.0-dir.tar.gz>
seem to have a lot of bundles most of which I may not be needing if I wanted to implement a
REST service using JAX-RS. Are the other bundles such as ZooKeeper absolutely necessary ?
As a side note , is there an OSGified version of Apache CXF independent from
DOSGi project ?
Thanks,
Nadir
