Re: [equinox-dev] Re: The launcher JAR's class path

Yeah, you still have to repackage the bundle, but it's a Zip and most
editors (e.g. WinZip) will allow you to edit the file in-place if you
need to make changes.

When you say "one thing to change", you mean the log4j.properties file
inside my fragment bundle, right? I still have to rebuild the bundle
to push the changes into the framework, unless I've misunderstood your
point here about "standalone" and "one thing". Are you suggesting I
can just point to a log4j.properties file sitting on disk?

I tried that and it worked on the first try.

I didn't export anything, cited my Fragment-Host as "log4j", restarted
the framework with my fragment installed, and that pesky log4j warning
was no more.

I'm not sure setting up the whole Maven module and POM just to jam one
file in there was more worth it than just writing my own manifest, but
at least the packaging process is now repeatable.
