After upgrading my server and cleanup up stuff I thought it would be nice to work a little bit on the homepage again. Since iWeb seems to be stuck and I am working mostly on Linux now I thought it would be interesting to give WordPress a try.

Let’s see what happens …

Reading an object from an ObjectInputStream is easy. But using OSGi it can be a little bit more difficult. Due to the class loader system of OSGi the ObjectInputStream might not know the class that was stored. Assume you have a Bundle A, B and C. B provides the storing capabilities that stores objects somewhere and C provides the data object itself. Now if A tells B to store some object from C this will not be a problem, since the object class is attached to the object instance. But reading back the object will result in a ClassNotFoundException since B has no reference to C and therefore does not know any classes of C.

Although Equinox offers some sort of remote TCP console it is not what you actually want to have. Being limited to one session, having not authentication and allowing the user to execute any command and shut down the OSGi container is not an option for a productive system.
