[equinox-dev] Locate files into bundles using non osgi methods

["Piero Campanelli" <pierocampanelli@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am working in an OSGi project where I have some "legacy" bundle
which has been created only to wrap an existing proprietary / old Java
library. (call this bundles "legacybundle").

LegacyBundle contains code that load configuration files using
"FileInputStream(String path)" method which prevents me from using
standard OSGi methods (for example: getResourceAsStream(....)....see
here: http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t101557.rhtml).

I fixed the problem using FileLocator which alas is Equinox
proprietary and non-OSGi portable. (to avoid code dependencies I
created a bundle which expose a PathResolverService which wraps the
trick of using FileLocator. All bundles depend from
PathResolverService).

Have you ever tried to solve this kind of problem ?

Thank you

Piero
