Need help on how to export some packages in a bundle

[rgam]

Can I create a bundle that composes of jars then I will export some packages located per jar?

For example I have a bundle1 with 3 jars with its packages and classes. I want to export package1 of jar1 so that will be use by other bundles that I created.


Bundle1
|_ jar1
|_ _ package1
|_ _ _ class1
|_ _ _ class2
|_ _ _ class3
|_ _ package2
|_ _ _ class1
|_ _ _ class2
|_ jar2
|_ _ package1
|_ _ _ class1
|_ _ _ class2
|_ _ package2
|_ _ _ class1
|_ jar3
|_ _ package1
|_ _ _ class1
|_ _ package2
|_ _ _ class1

You can do this by using the Bundle-Classpath manifest header to point to the jars inside your bundle. E.g.:

Bundle-Classpath: .,jar1.jar,jar2.jar,jar3.jar

You can then use the Export-Package header as usual to export packages contained in the jars.
