Hi Clement, thank you very much, the online manipulator seems to provide exactly what I was looking for! I still didn't figure out how to manipulate the URL in order to add the prefix (without installing the bundle manually or adjusting the according eclipse config file with a text editor ;)), I guess it should be part of the run configuration. But I guess this is more of an eclipse topic.

One thing is to run the 'manipulator' on the bundle to be 'iPOJO-powered'. The manipulator will generate this entry.

Of course :-) The eclipse integration is based on Ant, but there is also a Maven plugin too. Finally, there is a way to run the manipulation at runtime by deploying the iPOJO url handler (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/felix/org.apache.felix.ipojo.o nli ne.manipulator/1.6.0/org.apache.felix.ipojo.online.manipulator-1.6.0.jar ) and prefix you bundle URL with ipojo: like install ipojo:file:/tmp/my-bundle.jar > >I'm sure I'm missing something quite primitive here, so please consider >that I am absolutely new to iPOJO J > >If there is an explanation on this topic on the website that I just >missed, please point me there. I definitely agree, I plan to improve the doc during the next two weeks.
