Thanks for the help. I just printed out the iPOJO documentation and will
be going through it.

Ok, enough of the background, my question is "What is the best approach
for Porting a JMX enabled Component to OSGi?" Currently the Components
send and receive 'Events/Message' using JMX (Publish/Subscribe).
That maps nicely onto the Event Admin specification.
They are
also managed (stopped/started/unload/loaded/configuration changes, etc.)
using a JMX Console.
If you make your beans map onto bundles, then those can be managed in
the same way. We have a local shell, telnet and webconsole, and even a
wrapper to expose bundles through JMX again.
I also will be running parts of the application
outside of the OSGi container which will need access to components
running
inside the OSGi container. Components running inside of the OSGi contain
will need access to resources that are in the classpath (created at
startup).
Check out the documentation on embedding Felix for more details about
this. Stuff on the classpath can be exposed through the system bundle.
The bundle context can be used outside the framework to lookup services
and use them.
