You can try to set the thread context classloader to the classloader of your bundle and make sure your bundle imports the derby classes.

Christian,
   Good to hear from you again.  Hope all is well!

   The "OSGI application" is an Eclipse RCP client, not a server side 
implementation.  I'm using RESOUCE_LOCAL as recommended with an SE application.  Derby is 
used in embedded mode within the same JVM as the client.

   I am hoping there is either an undocumented capability within Derby or a way 
to get the DriverManager class from JPA provider (EclipseLink).  Failing those 
options, I will have to stop / restart the client multiple times.

You should avoid using Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory. It does not work 
well in OSGi. Instead use Aries JPA or Aries transaction control.
Both can provide you with a fully configured EntityManagerFactory and 
EntityManager that copes well with the dynamics of OSGi.

Persistence.xml
      <properties>
                <property name="eclipse.weaving" value="false" />
                <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver"

                <property name="eclipselink.logging.parameters" value="true" />
        </properties>


At one point in the application, I need to stop the underlying Derby database. 
All of the examples show calling:
      Class.forName("org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver");
      DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby:pathToDb;shutdown=true");

This is problematic, especially in an OSGI application with multiple class 
loaders. I have tried using
      if (factory.isOpen())
                        factory.close();
but this does not shutdown the Derby instance, only the JPA connection to it.

I tried using the OSGI console to stop the persistence related bundles 
including javax.persistence, JPA and Derby.  Stopping these did not release the 
file locks that Derby put on log files.

Is there a way, using JPA, to shutdown the underlying Derby instance?
