Accessibility of kernel classes [message #671267]

Hello everyone.

For my Virgo based application I would like to use a Virgo class that does the reading of the descriptor file for me. The class is XMLRepositoryCodec (from org.eclipse.virgo.repository-3.0.0.M03.jar) and it is used in virgo_home/lib/kernel.

I have two problems with this:
1) I wonder if classes in the kernel region are visible to the applications in the user region;
2) I have not been able to find a way to access the Virgo classes via Maven, i.e. to locate a suitable Maven repository that distributes them.

Any idea?

TIA,
B.

The visibility is controlled using the org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.userregion.properties file in config.

The file currently has imports for:
org.eclipse.virgo.repository;version="0",\
org.eclipse.virgo.repository.*;version="0",\

The Maven repo should be available on http://build.eclipse.org/rt/virgo/maven/bundles/ but I'm afraid the publishing is not switched on.
