Hello, I am new SCR, but based on the "The OSGi Alliance OSGi Compendium, Release 6 July 2015" the Reference annotation can be applied to fields. @Reference
Identify the annotated member as a reference of a Service Component. When the annotation is applied to a method, the method is the bind method of the reference. When the annotation is applied to a field, the field will contain the bound service(s) of the reference. This annotation is not processed at runtime by Service Component Runtime. It must be processed by tools and used to add a Component Description to the bundle. In the generated Component Description for a component, the references must be ordered in ascending lexicographical order (using String.compareTo ) of the reference names. The reference element of a Component Description. CLASS METHOD,FIELD However, the actual jar declaring this annotation from Maven import: <groupId>org.osgi</groupId> <artifactId>org.osgi.compendium</artifactId> <version>5.0.0</version> Does not support Field, only Method. So I can’t apply the @Reference annotation to fields. What am I missing? Best regards, Alex soto
