Where can I find documentation on how to utilize the servlet and http
services with Felix/OSGi?

Keep in mind that our usecase is to support the Eclipse Help system (as BJ
points out). As such, Tomcat in Eclipse is not API. That is, it does not
export any of the or support Tomcat code. It does provide some extensions
that plug it into the Eclipse Help mechanism but other than that, it is
not generically useful. Note also that because of this usecase, we
declined to componentize it and create bundles for all the internal
elements (e.g., servlet api, commons.*, mx4j, ...) but rather these
libraries are included as JARs inside the org.eclipse.tomcat bundle.
Going forward we want to reconsider our use of Tomcat (its pretty big for
our needs) and seek to ship more generically useful bundles for whatever
we do ship.

Re: OSGi bundles for Tomcat
It is a bundle but it does not get registered as an http service.
I don't have more info on the IBM initiative you are talking about.

Eclipse has Tomcat in a bundle. Don't know the details but I think they
use to serve up the help.

Hi all,
I am relatively new to OSGi. I was wondering if anyone has created
OSGi
bundles for Apache Tomcat. I found the following link that discusses
this:
http://docs.safehaus.org/display/OSGI/Tomcat+as+OSGi+Bundles
The short answer is yes. There was an IBM project to bundlize Tomcat
and a published whitepaper, which is where that list is from. But, I
have no idea if those bundles made their way public or where that
whitepaper or any other resources are now. 2 minutes of googling
didn't
turn anything up.
