Yes, it's more a "packaging".
For isolation, I think that Aries application is better.

Hi Jean-Baptiste,
Does KAR files provide any level of isolation?
I though that it is only an archive of repositories of features, so all
the bundles in such a file might be shared.

Re: ServiceMix 4: OSGi - How to isolate an entire application?
Hi Sergey,
In your bundle, you can choose:
- the package that you want to export by using Export-Package and
Private-Package of the Felix bundle maven plugin.
- using Blueprint, you define the service that you register in the
ServiceRegistry.
As ServiceMix uses Karaf, in Karaf you can package your application as a
KAR (Karaf ARchive). You can package several bundle in one KAR.
Without kar, you can use a features descriptor to define the content of
your application (in terms of bundles).

Hi there,
I'm trying to use ServiceMix 4 to deploy an OSGi application that
consists
of multiple bundles. These bundles provide some services which I don't
like to be visible for other bundles. I also don't like other bundles to
see exported packages of my bundles in my application.
Is it possible to isolate an entire application? I need something like
Apache Aries' EBA analogy or Virgo's (ex- SpingDM Server) Plan, PAR.
I can make my app to be a bundle with multiple jars in Bundle_ClassPath,
without any imports/exports and without providing any services. Is it an
appropriate solusion for now? Is there any plans to add features like
"application scope" to ServiceMix?
Regards,
Sergey
