Fragment Bundles with maven-bundle-plugin

[Rodrigo Madera <ro...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Does anyone have an example of how to create fragment bundles with
maven-bundle-plugin?

I have a bundle called Greeter-1.0.jar that needs some .properties files
that will be read using Java standard ResourceBundles.
I read that this can be accomplished by using fragment bundles to add the
properties files into the classloader.

Thanks for any input,
Rodrigo

Thanks for the answer.

But I'm really in love with Apache Felix. If fragment bundles
are not yet implemented, I'll wait and figure out myself in
another way.

Right now I'm struggling with Apache libraries, but every other
aspect is working nicely. Apache Felix is a very nice project.

Thanks once again,
Rodrigo

it should be just a matter of adding the Fragment-Host header using this
syntax:

  Fragment-Host ::= bundle-description
  bundle-description ::= symbolic-name (';' parameter ) *

for example:

   Fragment-Host: com.greeter.text;version=1.0

maven resources (src/main/resources) should already be automatically
included
in the bundle - if not then you can use Include-Resource to explicitly add
missing
resources, or relocate resources as necessary.

note - afaik fragment bundles are not fully supported in the Felix
framework, but
the resulting bundle should work on Equinox or Knopflerfish...
