iPOJO available on Module Fusion

Module Fusion is an OSGi based stack for enterprise applications. The goal of ModuleFusion is to help programmers to use the OSGi Service Platform as their underlying runtime environment.

ModuleFusion contains a full stack typical for Java enterprise applications. This stack currently consists of best-of-breed open source frameworks from the Java ecosystem. Additionally, ModuleFusion contains the necessary glue code to easily use these frameworks within OSGi.
Probably the most important principle of ModuleFusion is to base every integration, glue code and additional functionality on pure OSGi constructs. Therefore, ModuleFusion does not rely on proprietary features offered by some OSGi framework implementations.

The last week, I discuss with Roman about the possibility to integrate iPOJO in Module Fusion. So, now you can get an iPOJO feature pack, containing:

• iPOJO 1.2.0
• The ‘arch’ command
• The temporal dependency handler

You can also get some examples about how to use iPOJO in Module fusion. More specially, a complete example about how using JPA (Hibernate) with iPOJO is provided.

For iPOJO early adopter using iPOJO 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT, a Wicket web application using iPOJO dependencies injection is also provided. This is for early adopter only because of the Felix-936 feature. This new feature is used to exposed the web application in the OSGi registry and so allows Pax:Web to publish it.

So, if you’re interested in OSGi on the server side, or on domain-specific OSGi based application servers, have a look to Module Fusion and see how iPOJO can help you in your daily development tasks.
