[jetty-dev] Jetty Websocket Impl

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jetty Folks,

I'm a project lead for the Eclipse Communication Framework project.   
ECF has an implementation of the OSGi Remote Services/Remote Service 
Admin specifications [1], and our implementation is based upon a 
provider architecture...which allows us to easily create spec-compliant 
RS/RSA impls (providers) from new or existing transports.

We would like to use Jetty's implementation of websockets to create this 
provider [2].    One requirement we have, however, is that the provider 
be implemented as OSGi bundles, and so it would be best if the Jetty 
implementation that we depend upon were to be available as bundles (like 
the parts of Jetty that are shipped with Equinox/Eclipse).   Even 
further, it would be nice if the websocket client and server parts were 
available as separate sets of bundles...along with all necessary 
dependencies so that minimal providers (both server and client) could be 
created...without requiring unrelated/unnecessary parts of Jetty.

I've downloaded the Jetty 9 distribution from the jetty homepage, 
however, and I can't find in this distribution the Jetty parts as OSGi 
bundles...rather they seem to be just jars (although it's possible I'm 
just not looking in the right place).

What would be best for ECF/us to consume/use the Jetty websocket 
implementation as bundles?

Thanksinadvance,

Scott
