Running Unjarred Felix

Hi
 
>From my understanding of the OSGi Specification, an implementation of the specification must be executed as a Jar file, so as to be treated as the system bundle. Therefore, am I right in assuming that it is not possible to correctly execute Felix when the Felix implementation classes are not contained in a jar file (felix.jar)?
 
Thanks

I don't believe the spec has any such restriction.

We don't have such a restriction I don't think. You should be able to
unjar the felix.jar and still run it. You might have to set the
felix.config.properties property to a felix configuration file:

java -Dfelix.config.properties=<URL-to-conf/config.properties> -cp
<path to exploded felix.jar> org.apache.felix.main.Main

regards,

Karl
