Configuring Bundle Publisher View
The configuration of the Bundle Publisher view is divided in separate sections.
Use the View Contents section to configure what items to show in the Bundle Publisher view. Note that user bundles are always displayed and you cannot hide them from this section.
Use the Bundle Dependency Validation section to limit the amount of content that is returned during bundle validation, or to convey bundle changes to the server.
*To configure the Bundle Publisher view
1. In Designer, go to the Bundle Publisher view, click expand menu icon, and then click Settings. Alternatively, go to Window menu and click Preferences.
2. In the Preferences dialog box, expand Software AG.
3. Expand Application Platform, and then click Bundle Publisher.
4. In the Bundle Publisher page set the provided settings.
The following table describes the check boxes you can set.
Set this check box
To
Plain Jars (not OSGi)
Select to display plain jars in the Bundle Publisher view. When Plain Jars (not OSGi) is cleared, plain jars are not displayed.
Note:
Plain jars cannot be published, so you cannot select them in the Bundle Publisher view.
Default: check box is cleared
Platform Server Bundles
Select to display the platform server bundles, which are delivered with the server profile, in the Bundle Publisher view. When Platform Server Bundles is cleared, the platform server bundles are not displayed.
If you display the platform server bundles, make sure that you do not remove any platform server bundles from the server.
Default: check box is cleared
User Bundles
Display all user bundles in the Bundle Publisher view.
Default: check box is always selected
Show Warnings for server bundles
Select to view the OSGi manifest warnings for active server bundles. When Show Warnings for server bundles is cleared, OSGi manifest warnings are not displayed.
Note:
Selecting this check box may produce excessive warning messages in unrelated bundles when publishing or validating bundles.
Default: check box is cleared
Show warnings for missing optional imports
Select to view warning messages when imported packages for a bundle are not included. When Show warnings for missing optional imports is cleared, warning messages for missing imported packages for bundles are not displayed.
These warning messages are displayed when the Bundle Publisher is validating bundles or applying updates to the server. For example, if one of the bundles in the set has a manifest.mf file containing an Import-Package header with the resolution := optional qualifier, and no active bundle exports exist for this package, a warning message will be returned if this check box is selected.
Note:
In some cases a missing package does not result in a warning message, for example when you are performing imports to a test framework.
Default: check box is cleared
