Is there a xerces bundle that works with Maven2?
I'm still relatively new to Maven and Felix but I've been doing as much
reading and experimenting as I can.
I'm trying to write an application that has the following dependencies.
MyApp --> MyUtils
| |
| V
+------> xerces
I can successfully build and run MyApp if I include the xerces jar file
in both the MyApp and MyUtils bundles.
What I'd really like to do is use a separate xerces bundle that both
MyApp and MyUtils depend on.
I can't find an existing xerces bundle and pom file that works with both
Felix and Maven2. Does one exist? If not, is there a process that I
can follow to manually take the xerces jar file (or any third party
library) and create a Felix bundle and pom file that Maven can use when
building projects?

not right now, you'd have to rely that the jars inside the bundles are
the official releases like the ones in the maven repository. You can
build the xerces bundle with maven to be sure or do some checksum
checking.
There's some work being done to support OSGi in Maven 2.1.

Thanks for the info. :)

I've managed to get my bundles to build without including the xerces jar
in each of them. Unfortunately, I'm building against one jar and
executing using another.
Into my local maven repository, I installed the xerces 2.8.0 bundle that
I found at http://bundles.osgi.org/Main/Repository. I then tried to use
the following dependency in my pom.xml.
<dependency>
<groupId>xerces</groupId>
<artifactId>org.apache.xerces</artifactId>
<version>2.8.0.v200606131651</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
This gave me a "package org.apache.xml.serialize does not exist" error.
The xerces 2.8.0 bundle doesn't directly contain any class files.
Instead, it contains resolver.jar, xercesImpl.jar, and xml-apis.jar.
Can maven not see into nested jar files?
If I use the following dependencies, I can build successfully but then
I'm building against the xerces jar file from the ibiblio repository and
not with the xerces bundle that I will be executing.
<dependency>
<groupId>xerces</groupId>
<artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
<version>2.8.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
Is there a way to get around this problem?
