Re: [ice-dev] Issue 261 - Core as R-OSGi
Ram,

Just a couple of thoughts.
1.) My suspicion is that calling context.getServiceReference() still pulls a local reference to the ICECore service. So, we should figure out how to touch the remote service to see if it is running anything on an open port. You could try, for example, looking at the output of netstat to see if it is listing anything at the network port 9280.
2.) The size of the changes doesn't matter, only that they work and that you want to contribute them back. Additionally, if you want to contribute them back, please check out the instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md.

More on your other email in a minute.

Jay

Ram,

Sorry I haven't had too much time to review your code and this email, but here is what I think:
1.) Ultimately yes, but immediately no. I think you could probably "touch" the remote service using curl, wget or some similar tool. A browser might even do it. As for issue 262, finishing either part of it would result in a sufficient test. Do you know how to look up a remote service from a client? If so, then I'll take a crack at 262 tonight.

Actually I didn't have to change the Client code at all, so it looks like a context.getServiceReference(ICore.class) would still work.
 
3.) Yes, there are a few. I updated the ticket. In a nutshell, we should probably try to get it running headlessly and then move to 262.

Ok, I have looked at the updated ticket and I will start looking at the subgoals.
 
Congrats on getting this working, btw! Great work!

Thanks Jay, but the changes I have made are so small (a few extra lines in Core.java) that I am not sure if it's working as intended. The changes were based on R-OSGi tutorial and I am trying to verify that the Core is running as a "Remote" service.
 
Let me know if you want to merge this back into ICE and we'll help you do it.

I will work on the subgoals and have a completed set of tasks and then look to merge it into ICE, at that point.

Regards,
Ram
