-<p>The Apache Felix framework is intended to be easily launchable and

-factory. The goal is to make it possible to use Felix in as many
-scenarios as possible; however, this is still just a goal. In other

-greatly appreciated if they are brought to the attention of the Felix

 <p>The general steps of the standard launcher are quite straightforward:</p>
 
 <ol>
-	<li>The launcher only supports a single, optional command-line
-argument, which is the path to the bundle cache, so check for this and
-issue a usage message it there are more than one arguments.</li>
-	<li>Load any system properties specified in the <tt>system.properties</tt> file; this file is typically located in the <tt>conf/</tt> directory of the Felix installation directory, but it can be specified directly using the <tt>felix.system.properties</tt>
-system property. This file is not needed to launch Felix and is
-provided merely for convenience when system properties must be
-specified. The file is a standard Java properties file, but it also
-supports property substitution using <tt>${&lt;property-name</tt>} syntax. Property substitution can be nested; only system properties will be used for substitution.</li>
-	<li>Load any configuration properties specified in the <tt>config.properties</tt> file; this file is typically located in the <tt>conf/</tt> directory of the Felix installation directory, but it can be specified directly using the <tt>felix.config.properties</tt>
-system property. This file is used to configure the Felix instance
-created by the launcher. The file is a standard Java properties file,
-but it also supports property substitution using "<tt>${&lt;property-name</tt>}"
-syntax. Property substitution can be nested; configuration and system
-properties will be used for substitution with configuration properties
-having precedence.</li>
-	<li>For convenience, any configuration
-properties that are set as system properties will be copied into the
-set of configuration properties to provide an easy way to add to or
-override configuration properties specified in the <tt>config.properties</tt> file.</li>
-	<li>If there is a single command-line argument, then use that to set the value of <tt>org.osgi.framework.storage</tt>; relative paths are relative to the current directory unless the <tt>felix.cache.rootdir</tt> property is set.</li>
-	<li>Create a list to hold custom framework activators and add an instance of <tt>org.apache.felix.main.AutoActivator</tt>, which will process <tt>felix.auto.install</tt> and <tt>felix.auto.start</tt> configuration properties during framework startup to automatically install and/or start bundles; see the <a href="http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-usage-documentation.html#ApacheFelixUsageDocumentation-configuringfelix" title="configuring-felix on Apache Felix Usage Documentation">usage document</a> for more information configuration properties.</li>
-	<li>Create the Felix instance passing in the configuration properties, then call <tt>start()</tt>.</li>
+	<li>The launcher supports setting the auto-deploy directory (with the <tt>-b</tt> switch) and setting the bundle cache path with a single argument, so check for this and issue a usage message it there are more than one arguments.</li>
+	<li>Load any system properties specified in the <tt>system.properties</tt> file; this file is typically located in the <tt>conf/</tt> directory of the Felix installation directory, but it can be specified directly using the <tt>felix.system.properties</tt> system property.

The file is a standard Java properties file, but it also supports property substitution using "<tt>${&lt;property-name</tt>}" syntax. Property substitution can be nested; configuration and system properties will be used for substitution with configuration properties having precedence.</li>
+	<li>For convenience, any configuration properties that are set as system properties are copied into the set of configuration properties. This provide an easy way to add to or override configuration properties specified in the <tt>config.properties</tt> file, since the Felix instance will never look at system properties for configuration.</li>
+
+	<li>If the <tt>-b</tt> switch was used to specify an auto-deploy directory, then use that to set the value of <tt>felix.auto.deploy.dir</tt>.</li>
+	<li>If a single command-line argument is specified, then use that to set the value of <tt>org.osgi.framework.storage</tt>; relative paths are relative to the current directory unless the <tt>felix.cache.rootdir</tt> property is set.</li>
+	<li>Create a framework instance using the <tt>FrameworkFactory</tt> passing in the configuration properties, then initialize the factory instance.</li>
+
+	<li>Use <tt>org.apache.felix.main.AutoProcessor</tt>, which will automatically deploy any bundles in the auto-deploy directory as well as bundles specified in the <tt>felix.auto.install</tt> and <tt>felix.auto.start</tt> configuration properties during framework startup to automatically install and/or start bundles; see the usage document for more information <a href="/confluence/display/FELIX/Apache+Felix+Framework+Usage+Documentation#ApacheFelixFrameworkUsageDocumentation-configuringframework">configuration properties</a> and <a href="/confluence/display/FELIX/Apache+Felix+Framework+Usage+Documentation#ApacheFelixFrameworkUsageDocumentation-autodeploy">bundle auto-deploy</a>.</li>
 	<li>Invoke <tt>waitForStop()</tt> to wait for the framework to stop to force the VM to exit; this is necessary because the framework never calls <tt>System.exit()</tt> and some libraries (e.g., Swing) create threads that will not allow the VM to exit.</li>

-and performs variable substitution. This simple launcher provides a
-good starting point if the features of the default launcher are not

-default values are used. In the case of the framework bundle cache, it
-will use "<tt>felix-cache</tt>" in the current directory.</p>
+<p>This launcher relies on the default behavior of <tt>AutoProcessor</tt> to automatically deploy the shell bundles. This simple, generic launcher provides a good starting point if the default Felix launcher is not sufficient. Since very few configuration properties are specified, the default values are used. For the bundle auto-deploy directory, "<tt>bundle</tt>" in the current directory is used, while for the framework bundle cache, "<tt>felix-cache</tt>" in the current directory is used.</p>

-<p>This sets the <tt>AutoActivator.AUTO_START_PROP</tt> configuration property (string value "<tt>felix.auto.start</tt>"),
-which is a space-delimited list of bundle URLs that the framework will
-automatically install and start when the framework starts. However,
-this property key cannot be used as is; it must be appended with a "."
-and then a number, where the number represents the start level for the
-bundle when it is installed. In this particular example, ".1" is
-appended to the property name, thus the two bundles will be installed
-into start level one. This example uses relative <tt>file:</tt> URLs, which will load the bundles from the <tt>bundle/</tt>
-directory assuming that the launcher is started from the root directory
-of the launcher project. It is also possible to specify absolute URLs
-or remote URLs.</p>
+<p>The <tt>AutorProcessor</tt> will automatically deploy bundles in the auto-deploy directory and any referenced from the auto-install/start properties. Since we are using an empty configuration, the auto-deploy directory is the <tt>bundle</tt> directory in the current directory and there are no auto properties.

+<P>A bundle is the OSGi term for a component for the OSGi framework. A bundle is simply a JAR file containing a manifest and some combination of Java classes, embedded JAR files, native code, and resources. A bundle may provide some specific functionality for the user or it may implement a service that other bundles can use; bundles can only use functionality from other bundles through shared services and packages.</P>
 
-<h3><a name="ApacheFelixUsageDocumentation-InstallingBundles"></a>Installing Bundles</h3>
+<P>The Felix framework is packaged with three bundles, which are located in the <TT>bundle/</TT> directory of the framework installation directory. There are bundles for the Felix shell service, a text-based shell service user interface, and a bundle repository service. In addition to these bundles, the bundle repository services provides access to other bundles for easy installation. The bundle repository service provides a shell command, named <TT>obr</TT>, to access available bundles; refer to the <A href="apache-felix-osgi-bundle-repository.html" title="Apache Felix OSGi Bundle Repository">Apache Felix OSGi Bundle Repository</A> for more information.</P>

-<p>Felix uses properties to configure certain aspects of its behavior. The Felix launcher (i.e., <tt>java -jar bin/felix.jar</tt>) reads configuration properties from two different locations in the installation directory: <tt>conf/system.properties</tt> and <tt>conf/config.properties</tt>. Both files use standard Java property file syntax.</p>
+<P>Both the Felix framework and the launcher use configuration properties to alter their default behavior. The framework can only be configured by passing properties into its constructor, but the launcher provides a mechanism to configure the framework via a property file. The launcher The Felix framework uses properties to configure certain aspects of its behavior. The framework launcher reads configuration properties from <TT>conf/config.properties</TT>. This file uses standard Java property file syntax.</P>
 
-<p>The <tt>conf/system.properties</tt> file provides a convenient
-mechanism for defining Java system properties, but it is largely
-ignored by Felix, since Felix does not typically use system properties
-for configuration purposes. Any properties placed in the <tt>conf/system.properties</tt> file are available at run time via <tt>System.getProperty()</tt> and <tt>BundleContext.getProperty()</tt>. It is also possible to specify a different location for the system properties file by using the <tt>felix.system.properties</tt> system property when executing Felix. For example:</p>
+<P>The launcher also supports setting system properties via the <TT>conf/system.properties</TT> file. This file is purely for convenience when you need to repeatedly set system properties when running the framework. While the framework itself does not look at system properties, the launcher does copy any framework configuration properties found in the system properties into the framework configuration map, also for your convenience.</P>

+<P>It is possible to specify a different locations for these property files for the system properties file by using the <TT>felix.config.properties</TT> and <TT>felix.system.properties</TT> system properties when executing the framework. For example:</P>
 
-<p>Nearly all Felix configuration occurs using properties in the <tt>conf/config.properties</tt> file. It is possible to change the location of the configuration properties file by specifying a new location value using the <tt>felix.config.properties</tt>
-system property. It is necessary to use a system property here since
-Felix needs this value to start execution. As an example, the following
-command could be used to specify a custom location for the
-configuration properties file:</p>
