Re: [equinox-dev] Alternatives to OSGi

[Jeff McAffer <Jeff_McAffer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, several years ago we evaluated
several things as a replacement runtime for Eclipse.  At the time
the tihngs that seemed relevant were Avalon, JMX, and things like that.
 Obviously in the end we chose OSGi.  Of course I am biased but
I really don't think you are going to find a better, more vibrant, more
widely used, better tooled, standard runtime framework unless you are in
a particular niche that has requirements not met by OSGi (or there are
alterantive industry standards in your domain).

Good luck and please do let us know
what you look at and what you find.  This would be educational for
all.

Subject	[equinox-dev] Alternatives to OSGi

Hi,
  I am currently evaluating frameworks for running services on server
as well as clients. WE would like soemthing that is light. The OSGi
framework looks pretty good.
   I would like to know if there are any other frameworks that OSGi
compares to. Have anyone in this mailing list have been in the same
position for evaluation different options?

 Thanks
