looking at your original manifest, it contains the following: Class-Path = lib/appframework-1.0.3.jar lib/swing-worker-1.1.jar lib/felix.jar which the java launcher uses to augment the classpath when running with the "-jar" option ( in this case the referenced jars are under an external lib directory alongside the MIS.jar ) when you run this jarfile as a bundle under Felix, this manifest entry is ignored because it doesn't make sense in an OSGi application - the framework effectively treats your bundle as a self-contained unit, and doesn't know about the external lib directory alongside it. this is why you need to manually add those jars to your Felix launch command - of course you could write a custom launcher that scans a bunch of bundles, extracts any Class-Path headers, and add them to the launch classpath however, you might like to know that in OSGi R4 you can embed jars inside your bundle (ie. as entries in the jarfile, like in a WAR) and refer to them using the Bundle-ClassPath header, for example: Bundle-ClassPath: ., lib/appframework-1.0.3.jar, lib/swing-worker-1.1.jar where the appframework and swing worker jarfiles are actually inside your bundle - this is useful as it means you can embed implementation jars and keep them private from other bundles without breaking them open and inlining the contents of course the downside of embedded jars is that classic java tools like javac, etc can't handle them - which is why the old Class-Path header refers to external directories :( HTH Thanks a lot for yours help. > Can you please help me with actual error? > (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: R3 imports cannot contain directives.) > as Richard said if your manifest is as shown in the first email then it could be a bug in Felix's R3 parser could you open an issue on JIRA and attach your bundle? (or a testcase bundle that recreates the error) Matej > -- Cheers, Stuart
