OSGi: manually download bundles?!?
I just reached this statement in the Maven Handbook, chapter "Cooking with Maven and OSGi"
"After installing the Apache Felix Web Management console, you will need to install some of its prerequisites."No one move! What what what? I am missing something. Please tell me I am missing something.I do not want to believe that after years to make people move to Maven and embrace automatical dependency resolution and download, now with OSGi, the new frontier, I have to manually install jars into a bundle local directory launching something as ugly as:
<pre class="screen"><span><strong class="command">mvn pax:import-bundle \ -DgroupId=org.apache.felix \ -DartifactId=javax.servlet -Dversion=1.0.0</strong></span>Come on, tell me this is not true. A bad dream. Please.
