Connecting/Disconnecting an OSGi Runtime

Setting Up the OSGi Framework

To be able to connect your OSGi Runtime to mToolkit and to Eclipse, you have to install the IAgent OSGi bundle in it, as described in the "Starting OSGi Runtime with the Tooling Client Active" section of the Tooling Client (IAgent) guide.

Connecting and Disconnecting

To connect to an OSGi framework, right-click the framework in the Frameworks view and use Connect Framework.

The mToolkit will try to contact the OSGi framework by using its connection settings. On success, mToolkit will change the framework's status icon to connected and will display the bundles, services, deployment packages and applications.

Similarly, to disconnect from the OSGi framework, right-click it in the Frameworks view and select Disconnect Framework or click the Disconnect Framework button in the view toolbar.
