Richard,
I was already registered to the felix-dev mailing list and I tried to send
the e-mail to the list. Did u receive the message? I am copying this to the
mailing list, hope it arrives there.
I think its better to use the list for the reason you said. Many of my
questions was answered there too. :-)
Following your consideration number 3. I looked into the
conf/config.properties file and I saw this:
org.osgi.framework.system.packages=org.osgi.framework; version=1.3.0, \
org.osgi.service.packageadmin; version=1.2.0, \
org.osgi.service.startlevel; version=1.0.0, \
org.osgi.service.url; version=1.0.0, \
${jre-${java.specification.version}}
So I have to put my lib jar file into that or all the packages that I need
to import?
How I can do this?
Regards,
Ivo K. Koga

You have three options:
1. Embed the JAR files into each bundle that needs them (this works
if there is no sharing).
2. Create separate bundles for each JAR file and have them export all
of their packages (this allows bundles to share the packages).
3. Put the JAR files on the class path and export them from the
system bundle. The way you do this is to edit the
'org.osgi.framework.system.packages' property in the
conf/config.properties files to export the packages you want to
make visible, then your bundles can import those packages to use
them.
There is no way to reference external JAR files directly on a bundle's
class path.
