You can use following document to convert jar in to OSGI bundle http://dev.day.com/content/kb/home/cq5/Development/ApacheFelix/ConvertAJarIntoOsgiBundle.html In our case Third party jar are under /apps/dvdrental/dvdrental/libs To convert them in to bundles Option 1: jar cvfm jtmdb-1.9.12 manifest.txt jtmdb-bundle.jar Manifest file will look like this Manifest-Version: 1.0 Created-By: yogesh Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2 Bundle-Name: JTMB bundle Bundle-Description: JTMB bundle for dvdRental Bundle-Version: 4.4.0 Bundle-ClassPath: .,jtmdb-1.9.12.jar,json-20080701.jar Bundle-SymbolicName: net.sf.jtmdb Export-Package: net.sf.jtmdb Import-Package: org.json.JSONException,org.json After bundle is created you can put them in /apps/dvdrental/install folder, So that they can be picked by Felix. Once in Install Folder you will see them in felix console Option 2: Other option is use sling boot delegation http://dev.day.com/content/kb/home/cq5/Development/SlingBootdelegation.html to add third party jar. I would recommend felix console though as using boot delegation required restart. Option 3: Using BND tool 1) Install attached bnd.jar 2) Use command java -jar bnd.jar wrap {YourJarfile}.jar 3) Rename .bar file to {file-name}-bundle.jar 4) Put it in install folder or install using felix console Create OSGI bundle using BND with additional property java -jar bnd.jar wrap -properties bundle.bnd {YourJarfile}.jar version=1.1.1 Export-Package: * Private-Package: * Bundle-Version: 1 Bundle-Classpath: .,{yourjarfile} More information of available options here http://fusesource.com/docs/esb/4.2/deploy_osgi/DeployJar-Convert.html Some more useful doc |
