------------------------------------

Hi David!

So, here are the steps for the stuff I worked on. Hopefully you can introduce me to a more useful case, but for now I just did the basic case, as follows: 

1) Create a PDE / OSGi / plugin project  (The hello-world osgi template is a good one)
2) Create an "AS 7 Server Adapter" (right-click in server view, new, server, JBoss Community,  7.x, etc)
3) In the server view, start the as7 server
4) Right-click on the server in the view, select "Add / Remove Modules"
5) Move the osgi project over, click finish, wait for it to deploy :D

You should see your hello world osgi app load in your as7, and the "Hello World!" message appear somewhere in the ensuing output. 

So again, this clearly is the one-bundle simple use-case. I'd love to hear how you and other users might want it to function or intend it to function, or what's missing in regards to the export functionality. 

Thanks again!

> AS7 supports OSGi bundles as deployments, and Eclipse supports the creation of OSGi bundles through the built-in PDE tooling (see [1] for an example). However, OSGi bundles developed with Eclipse PDE can't be deployed via the JBDS to AS7 yet. 
> Support for deploying OSGi bundles to AS7 should be added to the JBoss Tooling.
