Hi, Here is the scenario I like to achieve 1. I create a OSGI component/service X that has an annotation A1 2. It has no dependencies or start/active methods 3. Based on the value of A1, I like this service to be available or marked as STATE_UNSATISFIED when starting up How can I do this? * ServiceTracker is not the answer I think. It doesn¹t provide the ability to access the component context that would allow me to disable the service again, plus I think its not a good idea as there might be dependencies to be managed * I don¹t want to add the logic in the activate method bc I want to apply it to all components with the annotation * Introspection in Activator : I could not use the component model directly, but search my bundle for all classes with this annotation, and start the service myself * I cannot use service listener, as ServiceEvent does not expose an possibly to interfere when registering the service * Are service hocks the answer ? Thanks a lot in advance Frank
