How do I access a file inside an OSGi bundle?
I am new to OSGi and created an OSGi-bundle which I run in the Apache Felix OSGi-container. There is a file resource contained in the bundle, which I need to pass to a method as a java.io.File . To instantiate a File-object, either an URI in the "file"-scheme or the path as string is necessary. How do I retrieve any of those in a clean way? I tried using the context.getBundle().getResource("/myfile") (where context is of type org.osgi.framework.BundleContext ) which returns the URI bundle://6.0:0/myfile . But this URI can't be converted to a File-instance using the File(URI uri) constructor
