Re: [equinox-dev] EventAdmin ServiceReference is always null?

Hi Cameron,

You are missing the implementation of
EventAdmin.  You need the following bundle from the equinox download
site (the same place you got org.eclipse.equinox.log).

org.eclipse.equinox.event

You need to make sure this bundle is
started so it can register the EventAdmin service.

Subject	[equinox-dev] EventAdmin ServiceReference is always null?

Hello,
 
I am unable to obtain a valid ServiceReference
for the EventAdmin service shipped with 3.2RC3.  The start method
in my Activator class looks like this:
 
public void start(BundleContext context)
throws Exception {
    ServiceReference serviceRef = context.getServiceReference(EventAdmin.class.getName());
   
    // serviceRef is always null!
}
 
The following items are selected in both
the Eclipse "Window->Preferences->Plug-in Development->Target
Platform->Plug-ins" and "Run->Run...->Plug-ins->Target
Platform" areas:
  - org.eclipse.equinox.log(1.0.0.v20060206)
  - org.eclipse.osgi(3.2.0.v20060505)
  - org.eclipse.osgi.services(3.1.100.20060426)
 
My manifest contains the following header
and everything compiles nicely:
    Import-Package: org.osgi.framework,
org.osgi.service.event, org.osgi.util.tracker
 
I'm running Eclipse 3.2-RC3 (Version 3.2.0,
Build ID I20060505-1306) with Sun's JRE 1.5.0_06 on Windows XP Professional
SP2.  
 
Note that I am able to get a ServiceReference
to the LogService.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Cameron Ross.
