Service Activator Toolkit

SAT Runtime

The SAT runtime is packaged as a single OSGi bundle that exports packages and services that other bundles import to assist with the development of service oriented OSGi bundle activators and related behavior. The SAT runtime also includes optional bundles that are useful for debugging and monitoring a running OSGi framework. The SAT runtime is built using Equinox for any OSGi R4 compliant framework implementation.

Installing the SAT Runtime Bundles: This section describes how to install the SAT runtime bundles such that they are available to your Eclipse development environment.
Launching the Equinox OSGi Framework: This section describes how to launch the Equinox OSGi Framework with the SAT core runtime bundle installed. It is assumed that you have installed the SAT runtime bundles.
The BaseBundleActivator Class: This section outlines the BaseBundleActivator that is provided by SAT as the superclass to all bundle activators. Understanding this class is central to understanding SAT.
Cookbook: This section describes in a task-oriented way how to use many of the SAT features.
API Reference: This section contains generated Javadoc to the org.eclipse.soda.sat.core bundle.
Runtime Warnings: This section describes the warning messages issued by the org.eclipse.soda.sat.core bundle.
