[ice-dev] Usage of Core OSGI.launch

["Ramachandran K. Narayanan" <knarayanan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello ICE-Dev,

As part of work on launching the Core separately, I have noticed a Core OSGI.launch file under org.eclipse.ice.core folder. I was wondering if this was originally meant to launch a Core instance or test it out separately?

1) When I right-click and try to Run As->Core OSGi.launch, it looks like it launches an OSGi container and I get some FrameworkEvent errors. Can anyone give some advice on how to use this file and/or correct the errors?

I had tried this out with the latest 'next' branch and I have attached a screenshot which shows a part of the console output.

2) I have now used OSGi Declarative Services (DS) to try and run Core as a Remote service. My changes are in https://github.com/knram06/ice/tree/remoteosgi3 . I have also enabled the auto-generation of OSGi metadata, based on http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/OSGiServices/article.html#declarativeservices_annotations for the relevant XML files.

Would it be possible for anyone to evaluate the changes? I am still not seeing a listener at port 9278.

Thanks,

Ramachandran
