OSGI has two classes/interfaces for dealing with Service Tracking -
ServiceTracker and ServiceTrackerCustomizer, which could be used to
create a OSGI-auto-discovery (and auto-cleanup)-Helper for hibernate:
A simple skeleton could look like:
package org.bibbernet.osgi;
import org.osgi.framework.ServiceReference;
import org.osgi.util.tracker.ServiceTrackerCustomizer;
public class MyServiceTrackerCustomizer implements
ServiceTrackerCustomizer {
@Override
public Object addingService(ServiceReference reference) {
// a new service matching the criteria of the ServiceTracker
can be added to the ServiceTracker
// get the service object
Object service =
reference.getBundle().getBundleContext().getService(reference);
// TODO: -> add service to hibernate service registry or if we
we don't want if to get tracked,
// return null
// reference.getBundle() could be used to
return service;
}
@Override
public void modifiedService(ServiceReference reference, Object
service) {
// nothing todo - only service properties are modified
}
@Override
public void removedService(ServiceReference reference, Object
service) {
// TODO: -> remove service from hibernate service registry
// release this service reference
reference.getBundle().getBundleContext().ungetService(reference);
}
}
-------------------------------------
package org.bibbernet.osgi;
import org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator;
import org.osgi.framework.BundleContext;
import org.osgi.framework.Constants;
import org.osgi.framework.Filter;
import org.osgi.util.tracker.ServiceTracker;
public class MyActivator implements BundleActivator {
private ServiceTracker myServiceTracker;
@Override
public void start(BundleContext context) throws Exception {
// Create a LDAP-like-Filter which matches the interested services
// or better the interested interfaces the service should implement
Filter filter = context.createFilter("(" + Constants.OBJECTCLASS
+ "=xxx.yyy.zzz)");
myServiceTracker = new ServiceTracker(context, filter,
new MyServiceTrackerCustomizer());
// start tracking
myServiceTracker.open();
}
@Override
public void stop(BundleContext context) throws Exception {
// close ServiceTracker to ensure all service references get
released
if (myServiceTracker != null) {
myServiceTracker.close();
}
}
}
The bundle implementing the service then simple needs to announce a
service with one of the watched interfaces - once the service gets
started, hibernate gets announced and could use either the service
object itself or the bundle defining the service - with this approach
you could also use the bundle's classloader to load classes with
bundle.loadClass() or access resources within the bundle with
bundle.findEntries(), etc.

Not sure this will actually help with OSGi in terms of
auto-discovery
at all after thinking about it some more. The problem is that in order
for auto-discovery to happen, Hibernate would need to have visibility
into the jar defining the service anyway in order to auto-discovery it.
On the bright side, I realized another benefit. It would finally be
possible to report the available types of a particular
service/strategy. For example, show me all the available
ConnectionProviders; all the available Dialects; etc...
