Re: [jetty-users] Declarative service in jetty 7.2.2

[Hugues Malphettes <hmalphettes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Henrik for blogging about your approach.
It looks good to me.
Regarding the configuration of jetty, I apologize for the lack of
updates of the eclipse wiki and indeed your blog is the most
exhaustive source so far.
To start and configure jetty I usually define the system property on
the command-line: -Djetty.home=a/path/to/jettyhome or
-Djetty.home.bundle=symbolic.name.of.bundle.with.a.jetty.config

The reason why we don't configure the jetty.osgi.boot bundle to
configure and start a jettty server is that projects should be in
control of when they want to start jetty.

I use p2 from PDE's target platform or directly p2-director on the
command-line to assemble the jetty-osgi distributions so I don't
usually need to worry about the exact set of jetty jars to download.
If you manually put together the jetty jars, maybe the jetty-server
aggregate will suit your need:
Here are the jetty dependencies that are placed in that one:
http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/jetty/aggregate/jetty-all-server/7.3.0.v20110203/jetty-all-server-7.3.0.v20110203.pom

I must say that there is a critical bug in the OSGi manifest for that aggregate.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=337337
It is fixed in 7.3.1
Let me know if you want me to provide a patched 7.3.0 for that aggregate.

Cheers,
Hugues

It's mostly a brain-dump though, and will probably contain some bugs. It might help you get started though (improvement suggestions are welcome!).
