Hello everyone.

I have the following problem: I have a number of Spring empowered bundles which contain, in the Spring config files, place holders for environment dependent properties. Registering specific property files with the OSGi compendium services, everything works fine on normal deployment cycles.

However when I try to fast deploy to my Virgo installation in the Eclipse Servers view for quick development cycles, I do not see how to add those property files to it. I have tried manually adding them to the stage dir of my Virgo installation, but they do not appear to be seen and the bundles fail to start.

Any hints for me?

TIA,
B.

You could try deploying the property files ahead of time using initialArtifacts (see the User Guide) and specifying repository: references to the properties files in repository/usr.

Sorry Glyn, I am sure I am being thick, but what is the format for the initialArtifacts element? Is it:
repository:configuration/[properties file name]?

And do I list them with comma separators but all on the same line, as the comment in the file seems to imply?

Thanks,
B.

Yes, that's right. In general each URI in the list should be of the form:

repository:<type>/<name>/<version>

where the final version component (together with the '/' just before it) is optional. Since configuration artefacts are all at version 0, there's no point specifying a version for those, so for a configuration the URI is of the form repository:configuration/[properties file name].

I noticed that the User Guide mistakenly used the format 'repository://' so I raised bug 391446 to fix this. Sorry if this confused you.
