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 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nick Wilson" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, October 14, 2010 9:50:51 AM Subject: RE: maven-appassembler-plugin and the maven-bundle-plugin 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: http://www.svcdelivery.com/wordpress/?p=5 It shows how to use the maven-assembly-plugin to assemble a ready-to-run Felix based app. Hope that helps.
