easy question: shapes demo
I attended Carsten Ziegeler's excellent Felix presentation at US
ApacheCon 2008 last week and I decided to play around with the 'shapes'
demo application [1]
I remember Carsten showing a UI for starting/stopping bundles, but I
can't figure out how to do that. Is it via JMX? If it's in a browser,
what url would I use?
fyi: I'm using the servicecased.host to run Felix embedded.

Also, it should work either way, in embedded and non-embedded mode...for
the most part this rarely makes a difference.

For the newly released Felix 1.4.0, you won't need to enter a profile
name...so the directions are a little simpler. :-)

RE: easy question: shapes demo

ok, I got it all working in non-embedded mode and using the shell console.
I tried getting the web console to work (http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-web-console.html), but I had issues getting PAX Web Service to run (first it complained about org.osgi.service.cm which I solved by installing and running Felix's Config Admin, then it complained about org.osgi.service.http and I got stuck there).
turns out the shell console works just fine for me.
For anyone following this thread in the future:
* download and unzip felix.zip from this link http://felix.apache.org/site/downloads.cgi
* follow these instructions to start Felix:
http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-usage-documentation.html
* enter a random profile name
* put the 4 servicebased.XXX.jar files in the root felix-1.2.x directory
* install file:servicedbased.XXX-1.0.0.jar for each of the four jars
* start <bundle_id> for each of the 4 jars
then you can run 'stop <bundle_id>' to and see what happens.
Very cool!
Thanks for the help guys!

Hi,
thanks for the compliments! And a big part of them should go to Richard
who prepared the presentation! Thanks Richard.
Now, in the demo I installed Apache Sling which includes the Felix
webconsole. This allowed me to demo the shapes app and another
subproject from Felix, the webconsole.
I think in your case, the shell console would be a better option - the
ui is not that ehm fancy as the webconsole, but it shows pretty well
what's going on wrt to bundle starts etc.

I take it this would require that I run the Felix as non-embedded, right?
Basically, I just want to show my supervisor how it handles starting and stopping bundles, and I'd favor the easiest possible setup.
Would the shell console be a better option?

I'm sure we can put a snapshot in a repository, but I might need a bit
of help from someone who knows more about Maven to do that. I have not
yet cut a release (something I've been meaning to do for some time
now, but somehow never got to it).

Well minimum for OSGi or for Felix? Felix should be able to do 1.3
(definitely 1.4), but if you run into any issues please report them.

Objet : maven build for dependencymanager?
Hi Marcel and DependencyManager users out there..
I can't find a build of dependencymanager build on a maven repository anywhere..
the main maven repository (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/felix/) contains just about all of felix, except my favourite bundle! ;-)
Can it be found somewhere? Or would it be possible to include it alongside the others.. we need it for our project.
Many thanks,
Arjun
