I have follow up question on Apache ACE together with Apache Felix embedded in Tomcat?

  1. After version 1.0 onward (0.8.1 onward) i am unable to see latest Maven repository available for retrieval of org.apache.ace.agent? I am newbie on Apache ACE. Hence was wondering whether i am missing anything?
  2. I am also having similar question. Hence wanted to check whether this was successful? If yes, then how it was achieved?

Let me answer my question after some tries so that others can use the same:

  1. Regarding point no 1 I am not sure about. Need to check with Apache ACE owners
  2. Regarding point no 2:

As commented by Marcel, i had extracted agent jar "jar xf target.jar jar/org.apache.ace.agent.jar" and installed the same in local maven repo with command

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=./org.apache.ace.agent.jar -DgroupId=org.apache.ace -DartifactId=org.apache.ace.agent -Dversion=2.0.1 -Dpackaging=jar

Provided this dependency in original web application maven code as detailed below:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.ace</groupId>
    <artifactId>org.apache.ace.agent</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.1</version>
</dependency>

Added additional configured parameters where we were instantiating Felix as detailed below:

String localId = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
Map config = new HashMap();
//Here i am adding Apache ACE agent configuration. For now two are ok
config.put(AgentConstants.CONFIG_DISCOVERY_SERVERURLS, "http://localhost:8080");
config.put(AgentConstants.CONFIG_IDENTIFICATION_AGENTID, localId);

List<BundleActivator> activators = new ArrayList<>();
//Here i am attaching Apache ACE activator as system activator
activators.add((BundleActivator) new Activator());
config.put(FelixConstants.SYSTEMBUNDLE_ACTIVATORS_PROP, activators);

Felix felix = new Felix(config);
.... regular felix.start etc goes here.
