Hallo Ray,

I am sorry, I do not understand your pseudo code example.
I've modified my test project to show you my current structure.

From my point of view, I would need something like a "Router" to route the 
Requests to the right instance of the controller. According to my current 
understanding, I will have several controllers for each configuration due to 
the configuration factory, right?

Would you mind looking over my example and guide me through?

This is the RestController:
https://github.com/phhoef/osgi-test/blob/master/rest-service/src/main/java/com/my/app/rest/rest/ServerInfoControllerImpl.java

Thanks,
Philipp

Of course you're right David. I was trying to describe effects rather than 
exact mechanics :)
