                        jettison,
                        mail
                    </Embed-Dependency>

When i do this it keeps showing missing dependencies for different packages. i have imported all packages (*) in pom.

Answer 1

download bnd.jar (bundle tool)

keep azur and bnd both jar in a directory

go to that directory and run following command

java -jar bnd.jar wrap microsoft-windowsazure-api 0.4.3.jar

tada... your bundle is ready, just deploy it and continue your work :)

Answer 2

Take a look at jcloud feature for Karaf it also contains some bundles for azure. I'm sure this will give you a list of bundles working.
