Hi, I have tried many times to use Pax Exam, and always got stuck in its complexity and opacity, this time was no different, hence why I resorted to the crankstart provisioning model. Obviously your mileage varies, but thanks for the pointer. The feature.xml looks extensive at 557 lines compared to the 50 or so far less extensive lines of the provisioning model.
I dont really care if the only way to start an OSGi container is to use feature.xml as long as I can continue to use a simple provisioning model to generate it, ideally not in XML, and ideally able to be minimalist.
