default console configuration for Equinox about osgi-run

[renatoathaydes]

osgi-run version 1.5.2 will use Equinox artifact org.osgi:org.eclipse.osgi:3.10.100.v20150529-1857 and run with the Gogo shell, which seems to be the current approach.

Equinox deprecated the -console option from version 3.8, so now we need to add a bunch more bundles to the default OSGi environment for the Equinox console to work?

Do I understand correctly?

Notice that the config.ini is already built correctly to start all bundles, so that doesn't need any change.

It reads so, I need to try

However 3.8+ is not in maven central http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.eclipse.osgi/org.eclipse.osgi

I've found a newer version of Equinox in Maven Central... you can use this to run with Java 8:

osgiMain = 'org.eclipse:osgi:3.10.0-v20140606-1445'

But I could not find a console. Equinox artifacts in Maven Central are a mess...

If you really need it, you can download the jars from the Equinox downloads page and use it as a flatJar dependency with Gradle (obviously, not portable)... but I don't see any public Maven repository that I can use to fetch the console jar with Gradle, unfortunately.
