ECF 3.13 has just been released [1].
ECF provides a modular and CT-tested implementation of OSGi R6 Remote
Services and Remote Service Admin (1.1) specifications.
The important additions in 3.13 [2]
i) New API (and tutorial) to simplify the creation of custom remote
services distribution providers. The distribution provider API makes
it easy to introduce alternative/new/private protocols, serialization
formats, or communication patterns (e.g. client/server or pub-sub
groups) *without* modifying the service API or implementation
ii) Distribution provider implementations based upon MQTT, CXF, Jersey,
Hazelcast and associated technical documentation [3]
iii) Eclipse tooling to aid in the development, debugging, testing, and
deployment of remote services [2]
