Use case
I recenlty OSGified an open source library using bnd-maven-plugin to add OSGi meta data. It was a multi-module maven project resulting in one .jar file per module. I wanted to quickly view all MANIFEST.MF files of all jars in a text file.
Turns out the bnd print command of the bnd CLI can help.
Examples
E.g. for a maven folder layout, run this in the root of your project:
bnd print -m */target/*.jar > allmanifests.txt
Or this if you have the usual bnd workspace layout with a generated folder, containing the jar of your bundle:
bnd print -m */generated/*.jar > allmanifests.txt
This writes all MANIFEST.MF entries to a allmanifests.txt for examination.
I also suggest adding the `-v --verify` option to also verify the bundle’s correctness.
