+<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-BundlePluginforMaven"></a>Bundle Plugin for Maven</h1>
+
+<p>This plugin for Maven 2 is based on the <span class="nobr"><a href="http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd" title="Visit page outside Confluence" rel="nofollow">BND<sup><img class="rendericon" src="maven-bundle-plugin-bnd_files/linkext7.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" height="7" width="7"></sup></a></span>
+tool from Peter Kriens. The way BND works is by treating your project
+as a big collection of classes (e.g., project code, dependencies, and
+the class path). The way you create a bundle with BND is to tell it the
+content of the bundle's JAR file as a subset of the available classes.
+This plugin wraps BND to make it work specifically with the Maven 2
+project structure and to provide it with reasonable default behavior
+for Maven 2 projects.</p>
+
+<p><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-simpleexample"></a></p>
+
+<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-SimpleExample"></a>Simple Example</h1>
+
+<p>Rather than going straight to a detailed list of plugin features, we
+will first look at a simple example of how to use the plugin to give an
+immediate flavor. A detailed "<a href="#MavenBundlePlugin%2528BND%2529-howto" title="how-to on Maven Bundle Plugin (BND)">how to</a>" will follow.</p>
+
+<p>Assume that we have a simple bundle project that has a pubic API package an several implementation packages, such as:</p>
+<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
+<pre>org.foo.myproject.api
+org.foo.myproject.impl1
+org.foo.myproject.impl2
+...
+</pre>
+</div></div>
+<p>If we also assume that we have a bundle activator in one of the implementation packages, then the <tt><plugins></tt> section of the POM file for this bundle project would look like this:</p>
+<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
+<pre>...
+<plugins>
+ <plugin>
+ <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
+ <artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
+ <extensions>true</extensions>
+ <configuration>
+ <instructions>
+ <Export-Package>org.foo.myproject.api</Export-Package>
+ <Private-Package>org.foo.myproject.*</Private-Package>
+ <Bundle-Activator>org.foo.myproject.impl1.Activator</Bundle-Activator>
+ </instructions>
+ </configuration>
+ </plugin>
+</plugins>
+...
+</pre>
+</div></div>
+<p>The <tt><Export-Package></tt> and <tt><Private-Package></tt> instructions tell the plugin about the contents of the resulting bundle JAR file. The <tt><Export-Package></tt> instruction tells the plugin which of the available packages to copy into the bundle <b>and</b> export, while the <tt><Private-Package></tt> instruction indicates which of the available packages to copy into the bundle <b>but not</b>
+export. If the two sets overlap, as they do in the case, then the
+export takes precedence. Since we did not specify any values for any
+other bundle manifest headers, they will assume default values which
+are described <a href="#MavenBundlePlugin%2528BND%2529-defaultbehavior" title="default-behavior on Maven Bundle Plugin (BND)">below</a>. One specific behavior to highlight is that the plugin generates the <tt>Import-Package</tt>
+bundle manifest header based on the contents of the bundle, which means
+that you generally do not ever need to explicitly specify it yourself.
+That's it.</p>
+
+<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-Features"></a>Features</h1>
+
+<p>The BND library underlying the plugin defines instructions to direct
+its behavior. For this Maven plugin, these instructions are issued in
+the plugin configuration section of the POM file, as was illustrated <a href="#MavenBundlePlugin%2528BND%2529-simpleexample" title="simple-example on Maven Bundle Plugin (BND)">above</a>. BND recognizes three types of instructions:</p>
+<ol>
+ <li><em>Manifest headers</em> - Any instruction that starts with
+a capital letter will appear in the resulting bundle's manifest file;
+the value for the header will either be copied, augmented, or generated
+by BND depending on the instruction.</li>
+ <li><em>Variables</em> - Any instruction starting with a lowercase letter is assumed to be a variable in the form of a name-value pair, such as <tt>version=3.0</tt>, that can be used for property substitution, but is not copied to the manifest.</li>
+ <li><em>Directives</em>
+- Any instruction starting with a '-' character is considered to be a
+directive that informs BND to perform some special processing and is
+not copied to the manifest.</li>
+</ol>
+
+
+<p>The remainder of this section covers the most important aspects of BND's instructions; for complete details refer to the <span class="nobr"><a href="http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd" title="Visit page outside Confluence" rel="nofollow">BND documentation<sup><img class="rendericon" src="maven-bundle-plugin-bnd_files/linkext7.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" height="7" width="7"></sup></a></span>.</p>

+<p><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-instructions"></a></p>
+
+<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-Instructions"></a>Instructions</h2>
+
+
+<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{<ExportPackage>}}"></a><tt><Export-Package></tt></h3>
+
+<p>The <tt><Export-Package></tt> instruction is a list of
+packages for the bundle to export. These packages are copied into the
+resulting bundle JAR file from the available classes (i.e., project
+classes, dependencies, and class path); thus, it is possible to include
+classes into your bundle that are not associated with source files in
+your project. <tt><Export-Package></tt> can be specified with
+package patterns using the '*' wildcard. Also, it is possible to
+exclude packages using negation by starting the package pattern with
+'!'. Thus, non-negated patterns indicate which of the available
+packages to include in the bundle, whereas negated patterns indicate
+which should not be included in the bundle.</p>
+
+<p>The list of package patterns is ordered and earlier patterns are applied before later patterns. For example, if you specify "<tt>org.foo.*,!org.foo.impl</tt>" the second pattern has no effect since all <tt>org.foo</tt> packages have already been selected by the first pattern. Instead, you should specify "<tt>!org.foo.impl,org.foo.*</tt>", which will export all <tt>org.foo</tt> packages except <tt>org.foo.impl</tt>.</p>
+
+<p>Following standard OSGi R4 syntax, package patterns can include both
+directives and attributes, which will be copied appropriately into the
+generated Export-Package manifest header. Besides explicitly listing
+package version attributes, BND will also determine package versions by
+examining the source JAR file or from <tt>packageinfo</tt> files in the package directory.</p>
+
+<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{<PrivatePackage>}}"></a><tt><Private-Package></tt></h3>
+
+<p>The <tt><Private-Package></tt> instruction is similar in every way to the <tt><Export-Package></tt> instruction, except for the fact that these packages will <b>not</b>
+be exported by the bundle. If a package is selected by both the export
+and private package headers, then the export takes precedence.</p>
+
+<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{<IncludeResource>}}"></a><tt><Include-Resource></tt></h3>
+
+<p>The <tt><Include-Resource></tt> instruction is a list of
+arbitrary resources that should be copied into the bundle JAR file. The
+specified resources are declared as clauses that can have the following
+forms:</p>
+<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
+<pre>clause ::= assignment | inline | simple
+assignment ::= PATH '=' PATH
+simple ::= PATH
+inline ::= '@' PATH
+</pre>
+</div></div>
+<p>For the <tt><Include-Resource></tt> instruction, actual file paths are relative to the <tt>pom.xml</tt>, while file copy destinations are relative to the root of the resulting bundle JAR file. In the case of <tt>assignment</tt> or <tt>simple</tt> forms, the <tt>PATH</tt> parameter can point to a file or directory. The <tt>simple</tt>
+form will place the resource in the bundle JAR with only the file name,
+i.e., without any path component. For example, including <tt>src/main/resources/a/b.c</tt> will result in a resource <tt>b.c</tt> in the root of the bundle JAR. If the <tt>PATH</tt>
+points to a directory, the entire directory hierarchy is copied into
+the resulting bundle JAR file relative to the specified directory. If a
+specific resource must be placed into a subdirectory of the bundle jar,
+then use the <tt>assignment</tt> form, where the first path is the the
+destination path (including file name if the resource is a file) and
+the second path is the resource to copy. The <tt>inline</tt> form requires a ZIP or JAR file, which will be completely expanded in the bundle JAR.</p>
+
+<p>If a resource clause is specified inside of "{ ... }" brackets, then
+variable substitution will be performed on the resource, where
+variables in the resources are denoted with "${ ... }" syntax.</p>
+
+<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{<ImportPackage>}}"></a><tt><Import-Package></tt></h3>
+
+<p>The <tt><Import-Package></tt> instruction is a list of
+packages that are required by the bundle's contained packages. The
+default for this header is "*", resulting in importing all referred
+packages. This header rarely has to be explicitly specified. However,
+in certain cases when there is an unwanted import, such an import can
+be removed by using a negation package pattern. The package patterns
+work in the same way as for <tt><Export-Package></tt>, which means they are ordered. For example, if you wanted to import all packages except <tt>org.foo.impl</tt> you would specify "<tt>!org.foo.impl,*</tt>"</p>
+
+<p><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-defaultbehavior"></a></p>
+
+<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-DefaultBehavior"></a>Default Behavior</h2>
+
+<p>To use this plugin, very little information is required by BND. As
+part of the Maven integration, the plugin tries to set reasonable
+defaults for various instructions. For example:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-SymbolicName></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${groupId}.${artifactId</tt>}".</li>
+ <li><tt><Export-Package></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${groupId}.${artifactId}.*</tt>", unless <tt><Private-Package></tt> is specified, then <tt><Export-Package></tt> is assumed to be empty.</li>
+ <li><tt><Private-Package></tt> is assumed to be empty by default.</li>
+ <li><tt><Import-Package></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>*</tt>", which imports everything referred to by the bundle content, but not contained in the bundle.</li>
+ <li><tt><Include-Resource></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>src/main/resources/</tt>",
+which will copy the specified project directory hierarchy into the
+resulting bundle JAR file, mirroring standard Maven behavior.</li>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-Version></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.version</tt>}" with '-' character separator of the qualifier replaced with a '.' character.</li>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-Name></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.name</tt>}".</li>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-Description></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.description</tt>}".</li>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-License></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.licenses</tt>}".</li>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-Vendor></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.organization.name</tt>}".</li>
+ <li><tt><Bundle-DocURL></tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.organization.url</tt>}".</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<p>Since the plugin creates bundles for OSGi R4, it hard codes <tt>Bundle-ManifestVersion</tt>
+to be '2'. Additionally, it generates imports for every export to
+ensure package substitutability, which is very important when working
+with collaborating services. It is possible to override any of these
+values (except <tt>Bundle-ManifestVersion</tt>) just by specifying the desired value in the plugin configuration section of the POM file.</p>

+
+<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-Detailed"HowTo""></a>Detailed "How To"</h1>
+
+<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-GetMaven2"></a>Get Maven2</h2>
+
+<p>The first step in the process of using the plugin is downloading and
+installing the latest version of the Maven2 runtime. The latest Maven2
+release and instuctions for getting started with Maven2 can be found at
+the <span class="nobr"><a href="http://maven.apache.org/index.html" title="Visit page outside Confluence" rel="nofollow">Maven website<sup><img class="rendericon" src="maven-bundle-plugin-bnd_files/linkext7.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" height="7" width="7"></sup></a></span>.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-UsingthePlugin"></a>Using the Plugin</h2>
+
+<p>To use the maven-bundle-plugin, you first need to add the plugin and
+some appropriate plugin configuration to your bundle project's POM.
+Below is an example of a simple OSGi bundle POM for Maven2:</p>
+<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
+<pre><project>

+</project>
+</pre>
+</div></div>
+<p>There are four main things to note: (1) the <tt><packaging></tt>
+specifier must be "bundle", (2) the plugin and configuration must be
+specified (the configuration section is where you will issue
+instructions to the plugin), and the snapshot repository to resolve
+dependencies (3) and plugins (4).</p>
+
+<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-RealWorldExample"></a>Real-World Example</h2>
+
+<p>Consider this more real-world example using Felix' Log Service
+implementation. The Log Service project is comprised of a single
+package: <tt>org.apache.felix.log.impl</tt>. It has a dependency on
+the core OSGi interfaces as well as a dependency on the compendium OSGi
+interfaces for the specific log service interfaces. The following is
+its POM file:</p>

+<p>Notice that the <tt><Export-Package></tt> instruction
+specifies that the bundle exports the Log Service package, even though
+this package is not contained in the bundle project. By declaring this,
+the plugin will copy the Log Service package into the resulting bundle
+JAR file. This is useful in this case because now the bundle can
+resolve without having to download the entire compendium bundle. The
+resulting manifest for the Log Service bundle looks like this (notice
+how the imports/exports automatically have version information
+associated with them, which was obtained from packageinfo files in the
+source packages):</p>
