Welcome to the Apache CXF Distributed OSGi DSW Reference Implementation
=======================================================================
The dOSGi subproject of Apache CXF provides the Reference Implementation
of the Remote Services Specification version 1.0, Chapter 13 in the OSGi
Compendium Specification, and OSGi Remote Service Admin Specification
version 1.0, Chapter 122 in the OSGi Enterprise Specification[1].
This release is provided for your convenience in three different
distribution formats:
1. Multi-bundle distro: cxf-dosgi-ri-multibundle-distribution-1.3.{tar.gaz|zip}
Contains the dOSGi implementation and all 3rd party dependencies as
separate bundles within an archive. The current distribution is an
instance of this type.
2. Single-bundle distro: cxf-dosgi-ri-singlebundle-distribution-1.3.jar
Contains the dOSGi implementation and all 3rd party dependencies wrapped
in a single OSGi bundle so as to allow direct installation in your favourite
OSGi container in one fell swoop.
3. Source distro: cxf-dosgi-ri-source-distribution-1.3.{tar.gz|zip}
Contains the entire source tree for dOSGi. The current distribution is
an instance of this type. It may be built by running "mvn install" from
the top level directory. Ensure you have maven installed, version 2.0.9
or higher is recommended. Also a JDK of version 1.5.0_13 or higher is
required.
The best starting point for using dOSGi is the Getting Started Guide[2].
Also note the very detailed walk-through of the greeter demo[3].
If you need more help, or want to provide any feedback, please feel free
to drop us a note on the CXF dev or users list[4].
If you trip over any problems with dOSGi, don't hesitate to submit an issue
to the CXF Distributed OSGI JIRA[5].
Thanks for using dOSGi!
Regards,
The CXF dOSGi team.
