Modularizing web applications using OSGi

2009-12-04T18:27:02Z

Hi,

I am planning to modularize some Spring based Struts2 web
applications. I am basically looking to extract out the common
services and web resources out of these projects and form an OSGi
bundle out of it. This common OSGi bundle can then be made a
dependency of the other web applications.

Hi Pavel,

normally, the Spring Web Extender saves the BundleContext in a
ServletContext attribute (setAttribute("...", bundleContext). The
BundleContext is read by OsgiBundleXmlWebApplicationCon text from the
ServletContext.

The Glassfish OSGi-WAR-Extender also saves the BundleContext, but uses

Spring DM 2.0M1 with Glassfish v3

I`m trying to deploy webapp to GF v3 b68.

GF using it`s own osgi web osgi-web-container.

The problem is the following: osgi-web-container tries to activate
webapp on STARTING phase of bundle loading.

time.
i`ve tried to deploy spring-osgi-web-extender, but it deployed with

Thanks. The issue then may be that it doesn't work properly *while"
the workbench (i.e. the UI) is starting; will need to investigate...

Re: Terminate application if Spring extender fails

We don't run in eclipse (we just use equinox) so I'm not sure what you
are asking. We therefore don't ever start the workbench AFAIK.

Does EclipseStarter.shutdown() work for you even if it is called
before the workbench is started?

That's what we use without issues.

Re: strange startup problem after migration from spring-osgi 1.2.0 to 2.0.0.M1

Hi Dirk,

I've actually been seeing this for a long time when running OSGi in
Eclipse. I have seen it happen with Knopflerfish, Equinox and Felix,
and have never really found the actual cause. I recently saw this
article that I think could be related to the problem:

Re: Terminate application if Spring extender fails

If I'm not mistaken that's done with EclipseStarter.shutdown() -- but
that doesn't quite work either (i.e. it either hangs waiting for I
don't know what or blows up if called too early)...

Re: Terminate application if Spring extender fails

The OSGi framework is shutdown properly already once the system bundle stopped.
It's up to the launcher to clean up related resource such as console
thread. The eclipse launcher still running after OSGi framework
stopped. So you may looking for how to shutdown eclipse launcher
instead of OSGi framework.

Should have mentioned that this is an RCP application (that is
launched either from within Eclipse or standalone).
