Hi all, I'm a newbie to OSGI. Doesn't an osgi bundle act as a normal jar in a non-osgi environment? An osgi bundle is basically a jar with some additional meta info in it's manifest which is read by the osgi framework to enable osgi related stuff from the jar(bundle) as per my understanding.
So, ideally if you add the osgi bundle in the host application's class-path (which is non-osgi) it will just be considered as a normal jar and it should be able to import the class from the bundle just like it does from a normal jar. Did you try adding the jar to your host-application and importing it? Just a suggestion from a newbie, keen to learn more on osgi.
