celix 2.4.0 installation problem about celix HOT 3 CLOSED

@xinzhou0714 Welcome to Celix!

As @PengZheng explained, it is sometimes hard to keep documentation up to date, so if there is anything you find during the process of trying out Celix, you are most welcome to let us know by creating an issue ! Of course if you already found a solution for it yourself (or maybe via a reply in an issue), you are also more than welcome to submit a pull request for it.

The source for the release specific documentation is stored here: https://github.com/apache/celix/tree/master/documents

And the source for the other documentation on the website is stored here: https://github.com/apache/celix-site/

Your installation is OK.

Our documentation is a little out of date, it states that celix should give the following output: “Error: invalid or non-existing configuration file: ‘config.properties’.No such file or directory”, which is not the case any more. What actually happens is that the framework starts successfully with an empty configuration.

Using celix executable to try out Celix is not the easiest way of playing with Celix, since a properly written config.properties is needed. I suggest trying hello_world_c first. Once you grasp the hello_world example, adding USE_CONFIG option to the add_celix_container of hello_world_c_container will generate a valid config.properties example for you.
