Why are you starting felix inside you main? Wouldn′t it make more sense to just start felix from the shell and let it run your application? Or do you need parts of your application to be non OSGi? > 2) I got two new projects : Interface project and Impl project. The interface > project doesn't have to be a bundle.

If you only need it in OSGi then make it a bundle. If you need the interface to communicate between OSGi and th main() then you have to make it a normal maven dependency for your starter and export the package of the interface using a system package export. This is the only way to share code between OSGi and non OSGi parts of your app. Btw. the impl bundle has to have an Import-Package for the interface package of course.
