[ecf-dev] Error using the RemoteServiceAdmin

[Fabian Meyer <Fabian.Meyer@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I was trying to implement a quick example for the osgi remote service admin using ecf:

        HashMap<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<String, Object>();
        properties.put("service.exported.interfaces", new String[] {"*"});
        Collection<ExportRegistration> exportService = admin.exportService(test, properties);
        for (ExportRegistration reg : exportService) {
            if (reg.getException() != null) {
                reg.getException().printStackTrace();
            }
            ExportReference exportReference = reg.getExportReference();
            EndpointDescription exportedEndpoint = exportReference.getExportedEndpoint();
            System.out.println(exportedEndpoint);
        }

"test" is a simple service reference without any properties. The following exception is returned by reg.getException():

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Service=* is invalid
