Hi, just a heads up here; I looked more closely into Apache Felix FileInstall (which I should have done before...) and it seems that it doesn't meet our requirements. We have some logic regarding bundle versions implemented which comes into play for updates (only bundles with a higher version number is installed etc.) and removes. Adding this to FileInstall would be an incompatible behaviour. Then there is the missing start level support.
Therefore instead of enhancing FileInstall and add all our features, I think it makes more sense to leverage our OSGi installer and add file support to it - like we already have jcr support. Basically all we need is a simple bundle doing file scans and triggering the osgi installer. Regards Carsten -- Carsten Ziegeler cziege...@apache.org
