Resource-only bundles

Is there an example somewhere of a bundle project that includes only resources (no Java classes) to make them available to other bundles?

I have a file a.txt.  I put it in src/main/resources/dir1/dir2/a.txt.  Then I put this in my pom:

	<build>
		<defaultGoal>install</defaultGoal>
		<plugins>
			<plugin>
				<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
				<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
				<extensions>true</extensions>
				<configuration>
					<instructions>
						<Export-Package>dir1/dir2</Export-Package>
					</instructions>
				</configuration>
			</plugin>
		</plugins>
	</build>

My intention is then to import this package in another bundle, then within Java code in that other bundle use Pax Classpath to get a stream to a.txt and process from there.

But I am blocked at creating the bundle.  When I do a mvn install on the above project/pom, it builds the bundle just fine, and puts dir1/dir2/a.txt in the bundle jar.  But there is no Export Package header in the manifest.  And as you'd expect after I install the bundle and do "headers [bundleid]" I do not see an Export-Package header there.

Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

Yes, dots instead of slashes did the trick.  Thanks for the help.

L.S.,

Could you try using dir1.dir2 for the Export-Package configuration instruction?  Don't have anything here to try it myself first, but I think that's how we export other configuration entries in our own bundles.
