Hi Ali,
Thank you very much for your
answer.
I have tried by launching with –configuration
command and then I stopped one of the bundles which appear in config.ini, let’s
call it bundle A, so,launching again the command without removing –configuration
command the state of the bundle A it is STARTED and not STOPPED as I left it
the last time.
By the way, I have tried to
install a new bundle by command (install file:bundle_location.jar) in running
time and this bundle keeps installed the next time I launch the framework, so
this is something that I needed which it is working fine. So now I just need
that bundles, which were installed by using config.ini file, keep
their status each time I restart the framework. How could I achieve this?
I will check the Equinox’s
Launcher
Thanks
Regards
David

David,
Regarding the part that you are using the config.ini, why do you remove that
command line option on the subsequent launches? If you keep it there, then it
will reuse the cache that it was built the last time under that configuration
folder and you should achieve what you want; I am guessing that your config
folder is different from "config", underneath where you run your
command line, so the next time, after removing that command line option, it
looks into the ./config/ directory and doesn't see anything there so it only
starts the framework with no additional bundles.
You can also use launchers that are built as part of the equinox [1] if the
binary for your hardware is available.
Ali.

Hi,
I am sorry if this is not the right place for this post, but
I would appreciate the opinion and answers from people who know more about
Equinox and different ways to launch it. What is it the most common way to
launch Equinox without using Eclipse?
I have the next problem, I would like to have system bundles
which are installed from the beggining, one of this bundles has the
InstallerBundle role, so it is used in order to install another bundles by
programming. Since I would like to achieve a fast deployment I start to use Pax
Runner but I had to change this launcher because the persistence did not work
fine here. I mean, if I installed a bundle in run time by using Pax Runner
context I have not found way to achieve persistence in the bundles which
were installed in run time. The bundles’ states were not kept once I
restarted Pax Runner.
On the other hand, I have tried by using config.ini file as
it is said in [1]. But the problem here is that if I launch the command [2]
to load config.ini from CONFIG_INI_FOLDER the first time Equinox installs
and starts the written bundles in config.ini in a right way. But if I want to
launch Equinox by keeping the bundles’ state in the second launching by
removing –configuration CONFIG_INI_FOLDER I just get the framework
Equinox bundle installed instead of the other bundles from config.ini file.
How can I install a set of bundles automatically and then
launch Equinox framework in order to keep the bundles’ states for the
next running?
I would like on the one hand to have a simple and fast way
to install and start a set of system bundles without to install one to one each
bundle. On the other hand I would like to use this installation context to
launch Equinox in normal way, I mean, where I could use the different
capabilities that OSGi specification provides, keeping the bundles’s
state, keeping as installed bundles those bundles which were installed
programmatically, and so on.
How do you achieve this?

–configuration CONFIG_INI_FOLDER
Any idea will appreciated.
Thank you in advance
David
