OSGi examples

You won't believe how easy your deployments will be with OSGi.

OSGi example

All of the Schema Library's artifacts are included in the JiBX OSGI obr index located at:

http://jibx.org/repository.xml

Step 1: Download Apache felix. Any obr capable OSGi implementation will work (glassfish, etc).

Step 2: Start your OSGi container. Change to the felix directory and type:

java -jar bin/felix.jar

You should see the gogo prompt "g!"

Step 3: Add the jibx repository and type list to see all the OSGi bundles available.

g! repos add http://jibx.org/repository.xml
g! list

Step 4: Deploy the test bundle and run it. OSGi will automagically deploy all the dependent bundles

g! deploy -s 'Schema Library - jibx.org - Schema Test'

You should see output similar to this. Amazing.
