javac -d . -classpath lib/org.apache.felix.framework-0.8.0-SNAPSHOT.jar:lib/org.osgi.core-0.8.0-SNAPSHOT.jar src/example/Main.java

java -cp .:lib/org.apache.felix.framework-0.8.0-SNAPSHOT.jar:lib/org.osgi.core-0.8.0-SNAPSHOT.jar example.Main

After executing this command, a cache/ directory is created that contains the installed bundles, which were read from the bundle/ directory.
