Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

Arun Gupta: How to Create OSGi Bundles Using NetBeans, for Deployment in GlassFish
Arun Gupta has reached the Number 125 milestone in his Tip Of The Day (TOTD) series. The new entry is titled TOTD #125: Creating an OSGi bundles using NetBeans and deploying in GlassFish. Arun begins his discussion by noting similarities between NetBeans modules (NBM) and OSGi (aka "the dynamic module system for Java):
NetBeans has a modular architecture where each module is created as an NBM. OSGi is another popular modular system for Java applications and used by GlassFish to provide a light-weight Java EE 6 compliant application server.
There are a lot of similarities between NBM and OSGi:
Runtime container manages lifecycle and dependencies of modules
Both are packaged as JAR, metadata stored in META-INF/MANIFEST.MF and some other information
Runtime starts up, read meta information and sets up dependencies
Every module has its own class loader loading explicitly declared dependencies only
Arun then points us to Toni Epple's presentation from this past June's OSGi DevCon 2009 Europe conference, which shows in detail the similarities and differences between NetBeans modules and OSGi. Toni's full set of slides, titled "Frankenstein's IDE: Running NetBeans on OSGi and vice versa," is available at Slideshare.
Assuming you know the background information Toni presents, Arun moves on, showing how to create an OSGi bundle using NetBeans and deploy it in GlassFish. In Arun's TOTD, he assumes you�...
