That helps, but I dont' think that it would work for my application. 



My application has been refactored into a set of 14 modules.  Each bundle would 
consist of 1 or more of the modules, and each bundle would have its own 
MANIFEST.MF file in order to deploy it within a Karaf instance.  In the past, 
we used the appassembler plugin to package the modules into 4 seperate .jar 
files.  What I'd like to do is continue along that path, except use the 
maven-bundle-plugin to create a MANIFEST.MF file for each .jar file resulting 
from the appassembler. 



In this implementation, is it possible to use the maven-bundle-plugin on the 
.jar files after they have been assembled by the appassembler?  Is there 
anything about that maven-bundle-plugin that would prevent this kind of 
implementation? 



v/r, 



Mike Van

Hi Mike, 

I don't think the appassembler plugin is what you need for an OSGi application. 
I've put a blog entry together here:

It shows how to use the maven-assembly-plugin to assemble a ready-to-run Felix 
based app. Hope that helps. 
Regards, 

Nick

Has anyone used the appassembler plugin and the bundle-plugin together 
successfully?  if so, could you describe what you did?
