Tutorial

Prerequisites

Creating and Setting the Interface Bundle

  • Run Eclipse
  • Select/Enter your preferred workspace in the text box provided and click okay

 

  • After Eclipse has completed loaded, create a plug-in by clicking on "File" on the menu bar then scroll to New->Project->Plug-in
  • Enter the following information that is seen in the image below

 

  • Click Next->Finish
  • Now open the src folder, open the package inside, remove the activator file currently residing in it, and create a class called "Weather" and an interface called "WeatherSystem"
  • Copy and paste the following code to their respective file

Weather

package ecl.team2.lab2.weather;

public class Weather {
    private String city;
    private float tempInCelcius;
    private float rainInMM;
    private float snowInMM;
    private float windspeedInKM;
    private char windDirection;
   
    public Weather(String pcity, float ptemp, float prain, float psnow, float pwspeed, char pwdirection){
        this.setCity(pcity);
        this.setTempInCelcius(ptemp);
        this.setRainInMM(prain);
        this.setSnowInMM(psnow);
        this.setWindspeedInKM(pwspeed);
        this.setWindDirection(pwdirection);
    }
   
   
    public void setWindDirection(char windDirection) {
        this.windDirection = windDirection;
    }

    public char getWindDirection() {
        return windDirection;
    }



    public void setWindspeedInKM(float windspeedInKM) {
        this.windspeedInKM = windspeedInKM;
    }



    public float getWindspeedInKM() {
        return windspeedInKM;
    }



    public void setSnowInMM(float snowInMM) {
        this.snowInMM = snowInMM;
    }



    public float getSnowInMM() {
        return snowInMM;
    }



    public void setRainInMM(float rainInMM) {
        this.rainInMM = rainInMM;
    }



    public float getRainInMM() {
        return rainInMM;
    }



    public void setTempInCelcius(float tempInCelcius) {
        this.tempInCelcius = tempInCelcius;
    }



    public float getTempInCelcius() {
        return tempInCelcius;
    }



    public void setCity(String city) {
        this.city = city;
    }



    public String getCity() {
        return city;
    }
}

WeatherSystem

package ecl.team2.lab2.weather;

public interface WeatherSystem {
    Weather getWeather(String city) throws Exception;
}
  • Save and close both files and now open the manifest file

 

  • Click on the runtime tab then click on add in the "export packages" panel.
  • click on the ecl.... package and click okay

 

  • Now close the manifest and save all changes

Creating and Setting the Provide Bundle

  • Follow the same steps for creating a new plug-in projects but instead supply the name "ecl.team2.lab2.weathersystem.provider"
  • Remove all contents within the src->current package and add a class file called "ProviderActivator"
  • Add a new package to the current project we're dealing with and name it "ecl.team2.lab2.weathersystem.provider.internal" and within it create a class called "SimpleWeatherSystem"
  • Copy and paste the following code to their respective file

ProviderActivator

package ecl.team2.lab2.weathersystem.provider;

import org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator;
import org.osgi.framework.BundleContext;

import ecl.team2.lab2.weather.WeatherSystem;
import ecl.team2.lab2.weathersystem.provider.internal.SimpleWeatherSystem;

public class ProviderActivator implements BundleActivator {

    private static BundleContext context;

    static BundleContext getContext() {
        return context;
    }

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * @see org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator#start(org.osgi.framework.BundleContext)
     */
    public void start(BundleContext bundleContext) throws Exception {
        ProviderActivator.context = bundleContext;
       
        SimpleWeatherSystem sws = new SimpleWeatherSystem();
        context.registerService(WeatherSystem.class.getName(), sws, null);
        System.out.println("Weather Station On !");
    }

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * @see org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator#stop(org.osgi.framework.BundleContext)
     */
    public void stop(BundleContext bundleContext) throws Exception {
        ProviderActivator.context = null;
        System.out.println("Weather Station Off !");
    }

}

SimpleWeatherSystem

package ecl.team2.lab2.weathersystem.provider.internal;

import ecl.team2.lab2.weather.WeatherSystem;
import ecl.team2.lab2.weather.Weather;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Random;


public class SimpleWeatherSystem implements WeatherSystem {

            }
           
            Weather w =  new Weather(c, temp, rain, snow, windspeed, winddirection);
            this.weathers.add(w);
            System.out.println(w.toString());
        }   
    }
    public Weather getWeather(String city) throws Exception {

  • In the search field, enter "ecl", then click on "ecl.team2.lab2.weather", and afterwords click okay

 

Creating and Implementing the Client Bundle

  • Follow the same steps for creating a new plug-in projects but instead supply the name "ecl.team2.lab2.weathersystem.client"
  • Remove all contents within the src->current package and add a class file called "Activator" and another class file called "
  • Copy and paste the following code to their respective file

    }

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * @see org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator#start(org.osgi.framework.BundleContext)
     */
    public void start(BundleContext bundleContext) throws Exception {
        Activator.context = bundleContext;
       
        ServiceReference reference = context.getServiceReference(WeatherSystem.class.getName());
        if(reference != null){
            sws = (WeatherSystem) context.getService(reference);
           
            if(sws != null) {
                WeatherDialog.runDialog(sws);
                context.ungetService(reference);
            } else
                System.err.println("The Weather Station is down !!!");
        } else
            System.err.println("The Weather Station can not be found !!!");
    }

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * @see org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator#stop(org.osgi.framework.BundleContext)
     */
    public void stop(BundleContext bundleContext) throws Exception {

  • Save and close both files and now open the manifest file
  • Click on the dependencies tab then click on add in the "import packages" panel.
  • In the search field, enter "ecl", then click on "ecl.team2.lab2.weather"
  • Afterwords ensure you only have "metaInf" on the binary build panel checked and ensure that "out..= bin/" is included in your build.properties tab

   

Run Configuration Setting

  • After completing all previous steps, on the menu bar click on run, then click "run configuration.."
  • A window should have popped up, on the left panel, double click on "OSGI Framework"
  • The right panel should have altered, click on deselect all button to deactivate all bundles.
  • click on the check box in the table dubbed "workspace", this is essentially what we have been working on throughout the tutorial.
  • After click on the button "add required bundles" and click on the check box labeled "only show selected"
  • This reveals all the bundles that are required for our small program to work. Now under "start level" column, place the items in the following order, click apply and then run the code by clicking the run button

 

  • Once executed, a java window should have popped up

 

  • Click Go and you should see something similar to this

 

  • Most of the values are randomly generated and shows an excellent example of OSGI
  • This concludes the tutorial
