Debug DS within an Eclipse e4 Applications via a bndtools launcher

[Jon Passki]

Hello,

I am developing an Eclipse e4 application within Eclipse PDE and friends. It will use OSGi DS under the hood for different service components. The goal is to develop and debug these DS components in bndtools, which would involve a bndtool launcher. The option that immediately comes to mind is to use the biz.aQute.remote.launcher, with an example here [1]. Curious, though, are people launching / retooling e4 apps developed in PDE via the biz.aQute.launcher? If so, what are some pointers / howtos?

Cheers,

Jon

Hi Jon,

This sounds exactly like what the bndtools team do for debugging/testing bndtools. We use https://github.com/bndtools/bndtools/tree/master/bndtools.core to do this.

The lynch-pin to get Bndtools to launch an Eclipse application (e4 or otherwise) is in the bndtools.runtime.eclipse.applaunch-0.1.0.jar bundle here: https://github.com/bndtools/bndtools/tree/master/cnf/buildrepo/bndtools.runtime.eclipse.applaunch

You can copy that bundle to your Bnd workspace and use it in the bndrun files just like the ones that Tim linked to.

Thanks Greg and Tim for the pointers!
