OSGi provides the benefit of modularity, dependency management, service dynamism, and others. Java EE provides persistence, security, transaction management and other similar services. The Enterprise Expert Group in OSGi Alliance defines how to mix and match the Java EE APIs in OSGi. The Release 4 Version 4.2 of Enterprise Specification defines how several Java EE specifications such as JPA, JNDI, JMX, and WAR file specification can work with OSGi and levarage its benefits.

This hands-on lab will show the attendees on how to create OSGi applications, leverage Java EE features in them and vice versa using Eclipse and deploy such applications on GlassFish easily. Specifically, attendees will learn:
  1. Build a simple OSGi service and client using Eclipse and deploy on GlassFish
  2. Replace the OSGi client bundle with a hybrid application (WAB)
  3. Replace the OSGi service bundle with a EJB-based service
  4. Show how Contexts & Dependency Injection (JSR 299) can be used to inject a dynamic OSGi service
All of this will be built using Eclipse.

Please download the following software in order to maximize your participation in the tutorial:

  • JDK 1.6 U20+
  • Eclipse Helios for Java EE Bundle
  • Install 'm2eclipse" plugin and "m2eclipse extension" plugins from "http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org". Complete installation instructions are available here.
  • Download GlassFish 3.1 Open Source Edition, unzip the bundle, include "glassfish3/bin" in the PATH.
  • Download Maven 2.2.1 and unzip. Configure Maven 2.2.1 in Eclipse - In "Eclipse", "Preferences..." menu, search for "maven", select "Installations", click on "Add...", and select the location of unzipped Maven 2.2.1 directory.
