RE: how to add bus extension to the existing bus on the osgi env?

[XiLai Dai]

Hi, 

I've tried with your suggestion but :
   bus.setExtension(.......);
doesn't work.  The only way I can find to add extension class to bus is by 
provide /META-INF/bus-extensions.txt  :(

Thanks!

This isn't something that's "easy" to do right now, but it is possible.  

In your bundle activator, you can do something like:

            ServiceReference[] references = 
bundleContext.getServiceReferences(Bus.class.getName(), null);
            if (references != null) {
                for (ServiceReference reference : references) {
                    if (reference != null) {
                        Bus bus = (Bus) bundleContext.getService(reference);
                        bus.setExtension(.......);
                    }
                }
            }

or similar to add extensions to the existing bus's.      If you need to add 
things to existing services, you can extend that to something like:

            ServerRegistry reg = bus.getExtension(ServerRegistry.class);
            List<Server> servers = reg.getServers();           
            for (Server serv : servers) {
                ... do whatever ...
            }

You really cannot add anything to existing clients very easily at all as we do 
not hold onto anything client related so they can be fully garbage collected as 
appropriate.
