Repository Commands 1.1.0 - Now with Resolver support

The repository console commands bundle now has support for the Resolver Service 1.0 specification.

What this means is that the install command now has an optional [-r] flag that will try to find and install (and start if that option is given) the recursive dependencies of the bundle you are trying to install.

Until the next full release this feature is available if you build from https://www.knopflerfish.org/svn/knopflerfish.org/trunk/.

In order to try this you also need to install an implementation of the Resolver Service. There is one available at org.apache.felix.resolver-1.0.0.jar.
To make things easier you can uncomment the following line in the init.xargs file in the osgi directory:

# Uncomment the following line to add Resolver support
#-istart http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/felix/org.apache.felix.resolver/1.0.0/org.apache.felix.resolver-1.0.0.jar
