bnd - Create and diagnose OSGi bundles.

SYNOPSIS

bnd [general-options] [cmd] [cmd-options]
bnd [general-options] <file>.jar
bnd [general-options] <file>.bnd

DESCRIPTION

The bnd tool helps you create and diagnose OSGi bundles. The key functions are:
 * Show the manifest and JAR contents of a bundle
 * Wrap a JAR so that it becomes a bundle
 * Create a Bundle from a specification and a class path
 * Verify the validity of the manifest entries

GENERAL OPTIONS

--failok
Same as the property --failok. The current run will create a JAR file even if there were errors.
--exceptions
Will print the exception when the software has ran into a bad exception and bails out. Normally only a message is printed. For debugging or diagnostic reasons, the exception stack trace can be very helpful.
-f, --full
Do full
-p, --project <string>
Identify another project
-t, --test
Build for test
-o, --output <string>
Specify the output file path. The default is output.jar in the current directory
