Hi Francesco,
There nothing much to it, according to the customer. What they do is the
following:
Change the following in client/pom.xml
1) alter the packaging type
<packaging>jar</packaging>
to
<packaging>bundle</packaging>
2) Add a plugin to the build part
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<version>2.3.6</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
This will result in a MANIFEST.MF which contains OSGi information and
thus the package can be deployed in an OSGi container.
