Hi,
I am having trouble starting Felix when I use
-Dorg.osgi.framework.bootdelegation="*". When I run using the following
command:
'/usr/bin/java -Dorg.osgi.framework.bootdelegation="*" -jar
bin/felix.jar', it fails like this:
WARNING: *** Class 'org.apache.felix.shell.impl.Activator' was not
found. Bundle 1 does not import package 'org.apache.felix.shell.impl',
nor is the package exported by any other bundle or available from the
system class loader. *** (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: *** Class
'org.apache.felix.shell.impl.Activator' was not found. Bundle 1 does not
import package 'org.apache.felix.shell.impl', nor is the package
exported by any other bundle or available from the system class loader.

Section #3.8.4, Overall Search Order, of OSGi Service Platform Release 4
spec does not clearly (or I don't understand it well enough) state what
should be the behavior. Relevant portions of the spec is given below:
/1 If the class or resource is in a java.* package, the request is
delegated to the parent class loader; otherwise, the search continues
with the next step. If the request is delegated to the parent class
loader and the class or resource is not found, then the search
terminates and the request fails.
2 If the class or resource is from a package included in the boot
delegation list (org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation), then the request is
delegated to the parent class loader. If the class or resource is found
there, the search ends.
/
Unlike point #1 above, point #2 does not mandate the search to
terminate. I can understand the search terminating for java.* packages,
but why for other packages? It seems Felix is terminating the search,
therefore I am seeing this failure. Can anyone please clarify this? I am
using "*, " because I want to see how I can make packages from some
library jars available to bundles without having to set
org.osgi.framework.system.packages property?
I am hoping that if I add my library jars in system classpath and set
bootdelegation="*", the library jar's content will be automatically
available to other bundles even if I don't set
org.osgi.framework.system.packages property. Is this not going to work?
Thanks,
Sahoo
