-------------------------------------
Hello Claus,
I'm a colleague of Claes,
This ticket (as I assume you understand) is not related directly to Dozer. The
same null pointer is encountered for me
when i try to explicitly add type converters and fallback converters using java
code in our routebuilders in servicemix 4.3.
About dozer:
I can confirm that Dozer could be simpler to use in OSGi but we currently have
it running in a few bundles in camel contexts
in ServiceMix 4.2 with mapping files.
An upgrade to ServiceMix 4.3 encountered this problem that Claes did work
around . However, as you you know,
the camel and osgi refactoring last time around seems to have hidden a few
camel osgi packages as private, which means that, with this workaround we need
access to these hidden osgi classes. But thats another story..

> Key: CAMEL-3143
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-3143
> Project: Apache Camel
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: osgi
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0
> Reporter: Claes Redestad
> Assignee: Claus Ibsen
> Fix For: 2.5.0
>
>
> The showed up when using dozer as shown in
> http://camel.apache.org/dozer-type-conversion.html, whose
> DozerTypeConverterLoader tries to get the type converter registry using:
> {{{TypeConverterRegistry registry =
> camelContext.getTypeConverterRegistry();}}}
> Plausible error:
> {code:title=OsgiDefaultCamelContext.java}
> @Override
> protected TypeConverter createTypeConverter() {
> return new OsgiTypeConverter(bundleContext, getInjector());
> }
> {code}
> {code:title=DefaultCamelContext.java}
> public TypeConverterRegistry getTypeConverterRegistry() {
> if (typeConverterRegistry == null) {
> // init type converter as its lazy
> if (typeConverter == null) {
> getTypeConverter();
> }
> // type converter is usually the default one that also is the
> registry
> if (typeConverter instanceof DefaultTypeConverter) {
> typeConverterRegistry = (DefaultTypeConverter) typeConverter;
> }
> }
> return typeConverterRegistry;
> }
> {code}
> Error:
> getTypeConverter() returns an OsgiTypeConverter
> OsgiTypeConverter does not inherit from DefaultTypeConverter, thus the
> instanceof returns false
> => null is returned
> Solution:
> Lots of different ways to do this, and it's getting late here. In this case,
> maybe it's OsgiDefaultCamelContext's responsibility to also override
> getTypeConverterRegistry with something along the lines of:
> {code}
> @Override
> public TypeConverterRegistry getTypeConverterRegistry() {
> if (typeConverterRegistry == null) {
> // init type converter as its lazy
> if (typeConverter == null) {
> getTypeConverter();
> }
> // type converter is usually the default one that also is the
> registry
> if (typeConverter instanceof OsgiDefaultTypeConverter) {
> typeConverterRegistry = ((OsgiDefaultTypeConverter)
> typeConverter).getRegistry();
> }
> }
> return typeConverterRegistry;
> }
> {code}
> We've employed an (ugly) workaround in a local version of
> DozerTypeConverterLoader.java:
> {code:java}
> TypeConverter typeConverter = camelContext.getTypeConverter();
> DefaultTypeConverter registry = null;
> if (typeConverter instanceof DefaultTypeConverter) {
> registry = (DefaultTypeConverter)typeConverter;
> } else if (typeConverter instanceof OsgiTypeConverter) {
> OsgiTypeConverter osgiTypeConverter =
> (OsgiTypeConverter)typeConverter;
> registry = osgiTypeConverter.getRegistry();
> }
> {code}
