I would like to create several packages that depend on some other (third-party) jars (is this a good practice, is another topic)
I can use gradle to generate a fat jar (which has all the dependent jars) and an osgi manifest
My project Repository layouts in the libs / folder folder After creating the jar, third-party banks are located in the root bank (for example, ibm.jar).
My gradle's task is to use the osgi plugin with some basic osgi instruction, I only specified the export package as my software package manually, but not the other 3 jars
However, when I try to install this package, it shows an error
Error starting file:****.jar (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unresol ved constraint in bundle ***** [24]: Unable to resolve 24.0: missi ng requirement [24.0] osgi.wiring.package; (osgi.wiring.package=com.ibm.mq)) org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unresolved constraint in bundle **** [24]: Unable to resolve 24.0: missing requirement [24.0] osgi.wiring.package; (osgi.wiring.package=com.ibm.mq) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.resolveBundleRevision(Felix.java:382 6) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.startBundle(Felix.java:1868) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.setActiveStartLevel(Felix.java:1191) at org.apache.felix.framework.FrameworkStartLevelImpl.run(FrameworkStart LevelImpl.java:295) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
Gradle
task makeJar(type: Jar) { from { 'libs/'} manifest = osgiManifest { classesDir = sourceSets.main.output.classesDir classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath instruction 'Export-Package','abc.def' instruction 'Bundle-Vendor', 'ABC' instruction 'Bundle-Activator', 'abc.def.Activator' instruction 'Bundle-ClassPath', '.,*.jar' instruction 'Include-Resource', '@**/*.jar' } }
I tried with below, but this does not work, it seems gradle problem http://issues.gradle.org/browse/GRADLE-1107
'Include-Resource', 'libs/'
I tried to explain how to install them in classpath, but the problem persists
Bundle-ClassPath: '.,*.jar'
I see that the package I need (com.ibm.mq) is in the Import-Package: is this correct?
My question is: what should be the right manifest? Can gradle (based on BND) understand dependencies and automatically create a manifest, if so, which one is required?
EDIT: With my gradle installation like this, I get the same error (I checked that the class path is also displayed in the manifest)
