I'm trying to use declarative services in a web application bundle and I haven't found a lot of examples online on how to do this.
I'm using BND component annotations for my declarative service component along with the -wab flag to set the Bundle-Classpath properly. This will place my component implementation under WEB-INF/classes as is required by a web application and adds WEB-INF/classes to my Bundle-Classpath. In addition, BND will place a declarative services component XML file under OSGI-INF at the root or the bundle file and create a service component entry in the manifest containing that file. When I load the bundle, I get the error that the component description XML cannot be found. I'm guessing that is because the declarative service component runtime is trying to the find the XML as a resource using the bundle class loader. Should I be adding something to my Bundle-Classpath to find this or should the service component runtime still be able to find the XML file? This using the latest SCR, 1.6.0. As an overview, this is what my bundle looks like: · META-INF o MANIFEST.MF, contains (plus other stuff): § Service-Component: OSGI-INF/org.example.thosecomponents.ControlServiceImpl.xml § Bundle-ClassPath: WEB-INF/classes,WEB-INF/lib/primefaces-3.3.1.jar,WEB-INF/lib/start-1.0.6.jar · OSGI-INF o org.example.thosecomponents.ControlServiceImpl.xml · WEB-INF o classes § org · example o ... o lib § primefaces-3.3.1.jar § start-1.0.6.jar · ...
