Problem with IEventBroker [message #734956] Mon, 10 October 2011 14:18 Go to next message

I am trying to use the EventBroker in my sample application.

I implemented a simple OSGI service. An initialization of the EventBroker over injection doesn't work. So I assume I have to initialize it the standard way in the constructor of my service. Correct?

Bundle bundle = FrameworkUtil.getBundle(getClass());
BundleContext bundleContext = bundle.getBundleContext();
IEclipseContext eclipseCtx = EclipseContextFactory.getServiceContext(bundleContext);
eventBroker = (IEventBroker) eclipseCtx.get(IEventBroker.class.getName());

I get the following Exception:
org.eclipse.e4.core.di.InjectionException: Unable to process "EventBroker.logger": no actual value was found for the argument "Logger"

what's the problem??
Thx for any hints
Beat

I have now initialized the osgi service over the xml settings:

</service>
<reference bind="setEventAdmin" cardinality="1..1" interface="org.osgi.service.event.EventAdmin" name="EventAdmin" policy="static"/>
</scr:component>

but the question is still interesting - why can't I initialize the EventBroker? Is this a problem of the new IEventBroker, a sequence of instantiating?

The IEventBroker is *not* an OSGi-Service (OSGi has no idea about it)
but is created through an IContextFunction which *is* an OSGi-Service
and because the OSGi-Registry has no idea from e4 DI it can't resolve
IEventBroker!

The IEclipseContext created by the E4Application sets in the
root-context an Logger-Instance. If you are bootstraping your own
IEclipseContext you also have to set an Logger.

The problem you are facing generally here is that you are trying to use
DI-Stuff in a pure OSGi-Service Env where you don't have the default
IEclipseContext available which was created for the E4Application.

I haven't understood the problem exactly.
I get the same error in a bundle-Activator of a e4-fragment-bundle.
When I now inject the IEventBroker in a part of the fragment it works. What I don't understand is why I can not inject the IEventBroker in the Activator.

You can only use Injection if stuff is created through the DI-Framework
which is not the case for the Activator whose instance is created by the
OSGi-Framework itself.

Ok,
but also when I add the class to the DI it does not work:
Bundle bundle = FrameworkUtil.getBundle(getClass());
BundleContext bundleContext = bundle.getBundleContext();
IEclipseContext eclipseCtx =   EclipseContextFactory.getServiceContext(bundleContext);
ContextInjectionFactory.make(helpers.BundleInit.class,eclipseCtx);


The BundleInit Class:
@Inject
public void hookEvents(IEventBroker events)
{
  //My Code
}

Probably I make an error in my logic but I cannot guess it yet.

So you say you don't get a IEventBroker injected? Do have Equinox-DS
running?

Yes the plugin org.eclipse.equinox.ds is running. My Code in the BundleActivor-Start is:
public void start(BundleContext context) throws Exception {
	Bundle bundle = FrameworkUtil.getBundle(getClass());
	BundleContext bundleContext = bundle.getBundleContext();
	IEclipseContext eclipseCtx =   
	EclipseContextFactory.getServiceContext(bundleContext);
	ContextInjectionFactory.make(helpers.BundleInit.class,eclipseCtx);
	System.out.println("activate");		
}


The BundleInit.class is the class where the IEventBroker should be injected with the method I have written in the previous post.

As Tom alluded to earlier, you need to configure a Logger instance.

Basically, the implementor of IEventBroker is org.eclipse.e4.ui.services.internal.events.EventBroker, configured using DS through an IContextFunction. If you look at its definition, you'll see that it requires a org.eclipse.e4.core.services.log.Logger instance to be injected. But Logger is neither provided through DS using an IContextFunction, nor is it an OSGi service. Rather, it is defined by E4Application as it sets up the application's default context (see E4Application#createDefaultContext()).

Because a Logger instance cannot be found, and Logger is abstract (and hence can't be instantiated by the injection framework), the injection of EventBroker fails, and so the injection of your BundleInit fails too.

If you changed your code to something like the following

Bundle bundle = FrameworkUtil.getBundle(getClass());
BundleContext bundleContext = bundle.getBundleContext();
IEclipseContext eclipseCtx =   
	EclipseContextFactory.getServiceContext(bundleContext);
// configure the logger
eclipseCtx.set(Logger.class, null);
ContextInjectionFactory.make(helpers.BundleInit.class,eclipseCtx);
System.out.println("activate");


It would likely work (though you'll probably end up with an NPE from the null logger).

Thank you for the solution. It works quite good for my purpose.

...not working here however.
Same identical task: I want to enable DI on a Java class instance I specify.
Same problem: Logger.

Curiously I could do this in plugin A but not on my new plugin B.
Plugin dependencies are just the same, what could be missing?

Ok, problem is: it breaks only when the IEventBroker is injected.
Still this does not work for me:
eclipseCtx.set(Logger.class, null);
