Ok, but isn't it then just the case that you have the eventadmin
classes on the outside as well as on the inside of the framework? That
would explain the classcast exception as you are trying to assign the
eventadmin service from the inside of the framework to your variable
on the outside.
I guess you need to make sure you are delegating the eventadmin
package down to the bundles inside the framework (you can do that by
adding them to the system package exports). The framework can't
protect you in this case (by returning null for the service) as it
doesn't know what classes you have available on the outside of the
framework.
