Sorry for the false alarm. Looks like the usual way works for me now: URL url = new URL(id); return url.openStream();

How can I make use of the Felix URL protocol handling from within application that embeds Felix instance? Below is a code snippet which shows how I could achieve that meanwhile. But I believe there should be more elegant way to do the same.

In the PAX Url package I could not find Handler.class that I could use to make java.net.URL to work automatically with different protocols. Thus, I have ended up by the iteration loop :( Can anybody recommend better approach?

But in principle this is the same: classpath:/mybundle/file.conf or mvn:myorg/myartifact/version/type/classifier If I'd know how to get resource using one URL I would know how to get it using another. The link you are referring to is the same as I was talking about. It doesn't contain examples of getting resources using URLs programmatically.

I guess that you need to read a file located in your application classpath, correct ? In this case, using PAX, you can use classpath protocol like this: classpath:/mybundle/file.conf You can find some documentation here: http://wiki.ops4j.org/display/paxurl/Classpath+Protocol Regards JB Sergey Shcherbakov wrote: > Hello all, > > > > I am very new to OSGi and Servicemix. > > > > Let's say, I have a running Servicemix instance.
