Have a look at startlevels. I think that should give you what you are looking for. Furthermore, as you are on the outside, you could write a launcher which just loops through all bundles and makes sure they are started after the framework has been started.
Regarding the issue commands question: Have a look at shell.tui. All it does is to read from stdin and give the line to the shell service which will parse it and execute the command in question. You can write your own bundle which does the same but gets the input from somewhere else (whatever is more convenient to you). Hope that helps. regards, Karl On Mon, Oct 12, 2009 at 10:14 PM, Matt Tennant <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > It seems like there should be a simple solution to my problem.
