Hi Guillaume, just because out of curiosity, where in the spec is it defined how the PID is generated? I just found the following in the current 4.2 spec:
<quote> When a Configuration object for a Managed Service Factory is created (ConfigurationAdmin.createFactoryConfiguration), a new unique PID is created for this object by the Configuration Admin service. The scheme used for this PID is defined by the Configuration Admin service and is unrelated to the factory PID. </quote> The way I read this, that it is completely free on how to define this unique PID. >From my point of view in combination with the FileInstaller this newly unique Service PID could be like Carlos suggested. just my 2 cents regards, Achim > The ConfigAdmin spec specifies that the PID has to be generated, so > no, that's not possible. > However you can filter based on the file name, as an additional > property is added to the configuration to be able to easily link it > back to the file. > Look for the felix.fileinstall.filename property. > > On Fri, Apr 1, 2011 at 13:50, Carlos Quiroz <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi >> >> I have been using FileInstall to start and install my services using >> ManagedServiceFactories but one issue I find is that FileInstall ask >> ConfigAdmin an initial configuration which is set to a random UUID. >> >> Could be that FileInstall gets the pid from the file name like is getting >> the Factory PID?
