Re: [equinox-dev] Using 3PartyLibs in OSGi
|
Christian,
Note that in general you do NOT have to write a bundle activator to
use a 3rd party library, you merely need to add metadata describing
what the library is and what its imports and exports are. Furthermore
a lot of this metadata can be generated automatically either by
Eclipse (as described by Toni) or using Peter Kriens' bnd tool:

Today it's pretty likely you have to migrate your 3rd party jar
into an osgi bundle.
Because of that its quite common and there are plenty different ways:
Actually you "just" need to inject an osgi friendly MANIFEST.MF so
you "export" the packages you want to export from the jars.
Because this is the equinox mailinglist i would refer to the build-
in capability of eclipse:
--> new project --> plugin development --> plug-in for existing jar
archives
(remember, bundles are osgi bundles)
hope this helps?
regards,
Toni

Hi,
is it possible to use 3PartyLibs which are not originally designed
for OSGi, that means without bundle activator. For example the
Protege, Jena, Axis or own APIs which are working fine under J2SE !??
Is there a way to use them with the OSGi Framework !!
Best regards
Christian
