Yes. Each time a bundle calls ServiceObjects.getService for a prototype scope service, it gets a new object. So you don't really need multiple trackers but the tracker design normally gets the service object once and tracks it. So this means that each tracker instance will track one service object for a service (if you customize the tracker to use ServiceObjects.) --

Where "within a ServiceTracker" are you putting this? If it is in addingService, yes exactly! then you will only ever get one service object per service, so the change doesn't really do anything. well it does in that you now naturally allow trackers to obtain prototype scoped objects And you would also have to pair this with a change to removedService to release the service through the ServiceObjects object. Naturally! If the point is that if multiple trackers for a service are opened within a bundle, then, yes, each such tracker could obtain a different service object for prototype scope services. Exactly what I was wondering, and why? Because in a case `similar` to DS where multiple components in a bundle all request the same service, they would each have their own tracker, if that service were of prototype scope, I'm guessing each would be getting their own instance.... If I've understood correctly. - Ray -- BJ Hargrave Senior Technical Staff Member, IBM OSGi Fellow and CTO of the OSGi Alliance hargr...@us.ibm.com office: +1 386 848 1781 mobile: +1 386 848 3788 From: Raymond Auge <raymond.a...@liferay.com> To: OSGi Developer Mail List <osgi-dev@mail.osgi.org> Date: 2014/10/17 15:16 Subject: [osgi-dev] prototype scope and service trackers Sent by: osgi-dev-boun...@mail.osgi.org Is it fair to say that, within a ServiceTracker I can safely replace: S s = bundle.getService(servlceReference); with ServiceObjects<S> so = bundle.getServiceObjects(serviceReference); S s = so.getService(); which would mean that only where a bundle implemented more than one such tracker could the bundle ever get more than one instance!
