Well, if you use resolution:=optional then either your bundle is wired to a provider on start or it isn't -- hence, you only need to check when the bundle is started whether a class from that package is available to you or not and if it is then just register you service.
In case what you want to do is to allow your bundle to get wired to the package of a bundle installed after your bundle has been already started you will have to use a DynamicImport-Package. In that case you can then do the same check on bundle startup and everytime a bundle gets installed (using a BundleListener) until you get wired to a provider. Then make your service available. regards, Karl On Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 7:42 AM, Martin Thelian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > in my project I have some bundles providing mandatory and optional services, > whereas the optional services are depending on java-packages imported with > resolution:=optional.
