Re: D-OSGi and REST
Hi Sergey, it is possible to execute bundles as RESTful resources on Felix without the need for JAX-RS annotations or the CXF libs? Felix has a full-featured HTTP bundlified server?

You should have no problems publishing (RESTful) services on Knopflerfish as the DOSGI RI DSW component relies on the OSGI ServiceListener. It won't be possible to run the (REST GreeterService) client on Knopflerfish though untill it implements the relevant OSGI spec (RFC 119 ?), but it should not be too difficult to do.

Re: D-OSGi and REST
I think this is what you meant here probably with 'no annotations' .. and here : http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/dosgi/trunk/samples/greeter_rest/int erface/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/dosgi/samples/greeter/rest/GreeterSe rvice2.java (has no annotations at all) but GreeterService2 uses this model : http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/dosgi/trunk/samples/greeter_rest/int erface/src/main/resources/OSGI-INF/cxf/jaxrs/GreeterService2-model.xml Demetris wrote: Hi Sergey, it is possible to execute bundles as RESTful resources on Felix without the need for JAX-RS annotations or the CXF libs?
