[paho-dev] remote OSGi services over MQTT

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

The Eclipse Communication Framework project (ECF) has an implementation 
of OSGi Remote Services...a specification for 'distributed OSGi'.   See 
[1] and [1a] or some docs and links about OSGi Remote Services.

ECF has a modular provider architecture that allows the substitution of 
communications transports needed for the inter-process communication.   
As per bug/enhancement [2], we've created a provider that uses Paho's 
Java client...along with ECF...to expose OSGi remote services over 
MQTT.   MQTT clients can now export and/or import standard OSGi remote 
services over MQTT.   I thought the Paho community might be interested.
