Starting additional OSGI bundle in the console [message #55432]

Goal and Background:

I am trying to run another bundle besides the actual core bundle (org.eclipse.osgi_3.2.0.jar) in the console.

Steps performed:

1. The documentation from the Equinox page "Coding bundles on the Slug" served as an example for me. I was able to start the runtime and display the bundle state. However, I had to copy the org.eclipse.osgi_3.2.0.jar into a new folder.

2. Prepared a JAR file to display Hello World similar to the one in the documentation.

Problem:

I can not install nor start a bundle. The command "install test.jar" ends up with unknown source. The bundle does not necessarily have to be the "helloWorld-bundle" any other bundle is also fine.

I know that I am probably one of the candidates for a step by step tutorial. Help would be very much appreciated.

Thanx Bob

hello bob,

first of all: why did you hav to copy the org.eclipse.osgi_3.2.0.jar into a new folder?

For the installation of a new osgi-bundle use "install file:test.jar" for installing test.jar from the actual folder.

Please post, when you have further questions.

Note that you might want to use reference: URLs when installing to avoid the
copying of the bundle...
