I would say, that this is a situation where OSGi and general Web Apps are quite different: In fact, the Servlet instance will be singleton and the field will probably not change due to normal Servlet operation. So, yes, I would say in this special circumstance the warning can certainly be ignored IMHO. > > Another suggestion made by FindBugs is to mark these fields as 'transient'. > Is this common practice for service references in a servlet? Cannot tell, but I would assume that this "bug" can be marked to ignore in this situation.
