Re: [ecf-dev] ECF's 3.8 maven repo

For everyone's info, it seems that it may not be necessary for us to add the karaf features to the maven repo...i.e. I believe that karaf may be able to simply use the ECF Karaf URL so this is where I'm going to focus my attention for the moment. For details, see [1].

OTOH...I would like to see us eventually generate karaf metadata (or rather to have b3 do it if it can)...i.e. for [2].

Thanks,

Scott

I have no idea if that is all that's necessary. So far I lived under the
impression that a karaf-feature.xml simply lists the bundles to be
installed. I don't know if this is different for a maven repo.

Yeah, you are right that the karaf-feature.xml simply lists the bundles to be installed...and it works fine with URL [1] on Karaf right now.

The reason I'm doing this is that Karaf *also* can address maven repos directly for installing karaf features...using some sort of maven double secret karaf features metadata apparently. A few folks on the karaf users lists apparently have a particular affection for installing karaf features from maven repos rather than direct URLs (the web console and command line console both take URLs)...and so I'm trying to accommodate them...since we now create ECF maven repos...as well as p2 repos...and karaf features.

If anyone out there knows how karaf features work with maven repos specifically please provide pointers and I'll figure it out.

Thanks,

Scott
