+<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-Embeddingdependencies"></a>Embedding dependencies</h1>
+
+<p>The Maven Bundle Plugin supports embedding project dependencies into the built bundle using the <tt><Embed-Dependency></tt> instruction listing all dependencies in standard Bundle manifest header syntax:</p>
+
+<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
+<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag"><Embed-Dependency></span>dependencies<span class="code-tag"></Embed-Dependency></span></pre>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>where:</p>
+
+<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
+<pre>dependencies ::= clause ( ',' clause ) *
+clause ::= MATCH ( ';' attr '=' MATCH | ';inline=true' )
+attr ::= 'groupId' | 'artifactId' | 'version' | 'scope' | 'type' | 'classifier'
+MATCH ::= <globbed regular expressions>
+</pre>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>some examples:</p>
+
+<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
+<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag"><Embed-Dependency></span>*;scope=compile|runtime<span class="code-tag"></Embed-Dependency></span>
+
+<span class="code-tag"><Embed-Dependency></span>junit;scope=test<span class="code-tag"></Embed-Dependency></span>
+
+<span class="code-tag"><Embed-Dependency></span>aopalliance;scope=!test;inline=true<span class="code-tag"></Embed-Dependency></span></pre>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>By default matched dependencies are embedded in the bundle under as <tt>artifactId-version.jar</tt>. This behaviour can be modified using the following instructions:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><tt><Embed-StripVersion>true</Embed-StripVersion></tt> - removes the version from the file (ie. <em>artifactId.jar</em>)</li>
+ <li><tt><Embed-StripGroup>false</Embed-StripGroup></tt> - adds the groupId as a subdirectory (ie. <em>groupId/artifactId-version.jar</em>)</li>
+ <li><tt><Embed-Directory>directory</Embed-Directory></tt> - adds a subdirectory (ie. <em>directory/artifactId-version.jar</em>)</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<p>Normally the plugin only checks direct dependencies, but this can be
+changed to include the complete set of transitive dependencies with the
+following option:</p>
+
+<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
+<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag"><Embed-Transitive></span>true<span class="code-tag"></Embed-Transitive></span></pre>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>If you want a dependency inlined instead of embedded add the <tt>inline=true</tt>. For example to inline all <em>compile</em> and <em>runtime</em> scoped dependencies use:</p>
+
+<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
+<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag"><Embed-Dependency></span>*;scope=compile|runtime;inline=true<span class="code-tag"></Embed-Dependency></span></pre>

+
+
+<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-OBRintegration"></a>OBR integration</h1>

+
+<p>Once in a while you may create a bundle which contains additional classes to the ones compiled from <tt>src/main/java</tt>,
+for example when you embed the classes from another jar. This can
+sometimes cause unforeseen problems in Maven, as it will use the output
+directory (<tt>target/classes</tt>) rather than the final bundle, when compiling against projects in the same reactor (ie. the same build).</p>
+
+<p>The easiest way to get around this Maven 'feature' is to unpack the
+contents of the bundle to the output directory after the packaging
+step, so the additional classes will be found where Maven expects them.
+Thankfully there is now an easy option to do this in the bundle-plugin:</p>

+
+<p>If you have an existing manifest, you can add this to the Bnd instructions, like so:</p>
+
+<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
+<pre class="code-java"><_include>src/main/resources/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</_include>
+<Export-Package>org.example.*</Export-Package></pre>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>Bnd will use it when calculating the bundle contents, and will also
+copy across all manifest attributes starting with a capital letter.<br>
+As shown in the above example, you could use this to include a non-OSGi
+manifest which you then customize with extra OSGi attributes.</p>
