Re: [kura-dev] Kura and mToolkit

[Jens Reimann <jreimann@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello David,

I don't think there is much more progress on OSGi DP in general. The "new way to go" is OSGi subsystems. [1]

I don't know if I am "skilled", but I definitely did manage to write a bunch of Eclipse Plugins and other SWT/RCP/Platform based tools.

But I also agree with Cristiano, reinventing the wheel is not a good idea. But forking mToolkit seems troublesome for me as well. It is a rather complex thing, an just "taking it over" may be a bit too much. I would rather invest that time in getting OSGi subsystems ready and take on tooling in that area. There you may have the chance to get others involved as well.

Hello,

Yes, there is an issue running mToolkit in Neon. Unfortunately, the mToolkit library doesn’t seem to be actively supported any longer. We are looking for alternatives.

@benjamin @jens Do you guys know of other Eclipse based tools for creating OSGi Deployment Packages within Eclipse?

Thanks,
--Dave
