Scala singleton objects are implemented as a final java class with a static initializer that doesn't behave any differently under OSGi than a plain old java class with similar methods and initialization.
If I understand your concern, you're implying that singleton objects exist in a separate thread of some kind, with their own lifecycle, which may get orphaned when you unload a bundle. But, they don't, so it's not a problem. See [1] for a brief look inside scala singleton objects. /Andreas [1] http://pbadenski.blogspot.com/2009/06/design-patterns-in-scala-singleton.html On Jul 31, 2010, at 4:58 PM, Atle Prange wrote: > Hi, > > i am about to embark on a journey involving scala and osgi.
