Bndtools, including an file into OSGi bundle

[Bleza TAKOUDA]

Hello !

I am confused about including other resources (xml file or a picture) into a bundle using the OSGi Bnd perspective.

I tried to put the XML file in the same package with my classes but it seems not work.

I'd appreciate any hint about this.

Put it in a folder called "resources" at the root of your bundle and then in the .bnd file add a "-include: resources/SomeXMLFile.xml" and then bndlib when it makes your bundle will copy the file from the resources folder and put it in the root of your generated bundle.

Hi,

The documentation describes how you can include resources into a bundle. The bnd header that you’re looking for is called Include-Resource

http://bnd.bndtools.org/heads/include_resource.html

A simple stanza would be:

Include-Resource:  resources/SomeXMLFile.xml

The instruction equivalent of this header is -includeresource, not -include as previously indicated on the list. -include is used to include properties from a parent bnd file.
