OSGi and Signing...

Hi All,

Seems signing is an option in OSGi. The question came up at JavaOne if signing 
was needed. If not signed and the app is installed using OSGi will there be 
issues?

This would be a plus for Felix/OSGi if the java app ran without needing 
certificates.

Thanks,
-Tony

Yes the app is the Java Swing client that I am trying to bundle.

Thanks,

I am not really sure which app "the java app" refers to, but for now I 
simply
assume is is "your" app. If so, then the answer is a definite YES. You 
have no
need for any certificates in an OSGi environment, if you do not want to. 
AFAIK
signing bundles is an _option_ though.
