      Modifier and Type Method Description
      java.util.Enumeration<java.net.URL> findEntries​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle, java.lang.String entryPath)
      Helper method equivalent to Bundle#getEntry(String entryPath) except that it searches for entries in the fragments by using the findEntries method.
      java.io.File getBundleInstallLocation​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle)
      Works with equinox, felix, nuxeo and probably more.
      java.io.File getFileInBundle​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle, java.lang.String path)
      Locate a file inside a bundle.
      java.net.URL getFileURL​(java.net.URL url)
      Only useful for equinox: on felix we get the file:// url already.
      java.net.URL getLocalURL​(java.net.URL url)
      Only useful for equinox: on felix we get the file:// or jar:// url already.
      java.io.File[] locateJarsInsideBundle​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle)
      If the bundle is a jar, returns the jar.

      • getBundleInstallLocation

        java.io.File getBundleInstallLocation​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle)
                                       throws java.lang.Exception
        Works with equinox, felix, nuxeo and probably more. Not exactly in the spirit of OSGi but quite necessary to support self-contained webapps and other situations.

        Currently only works with bundles that are not jar.

        Parameters:
        bundle - The bundle
        Returns:
        Its installation location as a file.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if unable to get the install location
      • getFileInBundle

        java.io.File getFileInBundle​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle,
                                     java.lang.String path)
                              throws java.lang.Exception
        Locate a file inside a bundle.
        Parameters:
        bundle - the bundle
        path - the path
        Returns:
        file the file object
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if unable to get the file
      • locateJarsInsideBundle

        java.io.File[] locateJarsInsideBundle​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle)
                                       throws java.lang.Exception
        If the bundle is a jar, returns the jar. If the bundle is a folder, look inside it and search for jars that it returns.

        Good enough for our purpose (TldLocationsCache when it scans for tld files inside jars alone. In fact we only support the second situation for development purpose where the bundle was imported in pde and the classes kept in a jar.

        Parameters:
        bundle - the bundle
        Returns:
        The jar(s) file that is either the bundle itself, either the jars embedded inside it.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - if unable to locate the jars
      • findEntries

        java.util.Enumeration<java.net.URL> findEntries​(org.osgi.framework.Bundle bundle,
                                                        java.lang.String entryPath)
        Helper method equivalent to Bundle#getEntry(String entryPath) except that it searches for entries in the fragments by using the findEntries method.
        Parameters:
        bundle - the bundle
        entryPath - the entry path
        Returns:
        null or all the entries found for that path.
      • getLocalURL

                          throws java.lang.Exception
        Only useful for equinox: on felix we get the file:// or jar:// url already. Other OSGi implementations have not been tested

        Get a URL to the bundle entry that uses a common protocol (i.e. file: jar: or http: etc.).

        Parameters:
        url - the url
        Returns:
        a URL to the bundle entry that uses a common protocol
        Throws:

      • getFileURL

        java.net.URL getFileURL​(java.net.URL url)
                         throws java.lang.Exception
        Only useful for equinox: on felix we get the file:// url already. Other OSGi implementations have not been tested

        Get a URL to the content of the bundle entry that uses the file: protocol. The content of the bundle entry may be downloaded or extracted to the local file system in order to create a file: URL.

        Parameters:
        url - the url
        Returns:
        a URL to the content of the bundle entry that uses the file: protocol
