[equinox-dev] Unclear warning in DS when a service component provides inexisting/unimplemented interface
|
Hello,
We are using
declarative services and we came across the following situation. There are two
components, A and B. A provides an interface and B references this
interface. If the interface which A provides does not exist, or is not
implemented, when the framework tries to create an instance of component B, a
warning that there is probably a circular dependancy is logged. This does not
help to find the real problem - that the interface does not exist and there is
no such service.
In
ComponentReference.getMethod(...), if the result of the call
InstanceProcess.staticRef.getService(...) is null, then it is assumed that
serviceObject cannot be created because of circularity. But
InstanceProcess.staticRef.getService(...) returns null both when there is
circularity and when the service object cannot be retrieved from the bundle
context.
Also, if the
component state is checked with the component command, it is Satisfied, saying
in the dynamic information part that all references of the component are
satisfied.
Is this the intended
behavior of DS?
Kind
regards,
Lazar
Kirchev
