Spring OSGi + Eclipse RCP Tutorial
Ralf Elbert has just posted a tutorial explaining how to use Spring Dynamic Modules in an Eclipse RCP application:
Spring is not only a helpful framework for the server side, its “Spring Dynamic Modules for OSGi” can be beneficial for Eclipse RCP applications on the client side as well:
– Spring’s IoC container is the most well known implementation of dependency injection. As inversion of control and dependency injection are very general concepts for structuring software applications, you may want to use it to inject the dependencies of your UI and non-UI client-side components as well.
– Spring provides a bunch of general-purpose abstractions for other frameworks…

SpringSource: Introduction to the OSGi Web Container
For the last few months I’ve been working with Subbarao Meduri, Graham Charters, Hal Hildebrand and others from the OSGi Enterprise Expert Group on the RFC66 Web Container specification. The Web Container specification defines how WAR files can be deployed on an OSGi service platform in a standard way.
This is extremely interesting for us, because dm Server has supported WAR files for nearly 18 months now and we are excited to be able to work towards a standard model. As an end user, you’ll be able to deploy WAR files on OSGi without depending on proprietary APIs or features.

Scala OSGi Bundle With Spring DM
Today, the OSGi bundles concept with SSAP as the application server is one of the most interesting things that developer should know. In addition, Scala is one of the most powerful languages . Reading some blogs on how to integrate Scala with OSGi : an introduction given by Neil and also the DSL concept presented by Roman , I am asking, is it possible to do Scala with Spring DM as a Scala generated .class file?
SpringSource Plans for building OSGi applications
In the recent days and weeks, we’ve seen an increasing amount of interest in the future of build solutions for applications made up of OSGi bundles. Due to our heavy involvement with OSGi, this is something that is near and dear to our hearts and we’ve spent a long time looking at customer requirements and solutions for those requirements. In this blog entry, I will outline the requirements that we have identified and present the solutions that we see to these requirements.
