Alexander,

What is the functionality difference between:
celix_bundelcontext_registerServiceFactory
bundelcontext_registerServiceFactory

Also. I’m wanting the new service spin up per other bundle calling this 
service. So I have org.Algo1 that wants this C service and I have org.Algo2 
that also wants this C service. From reading up it appears that the service 
factory is what I want I think but I built one inside of Celix and it doesn’t 
appear to be making a new service when I perform the multiple calls. 

Thanks,
Brian
