Introduction

The Remote Services/Remote Service Admin specifications (chaps 100 and 122 in OSGi Enterprise spec) allows for the use of distinct distribution providers for every exported remote service. Distribution providers are responsible for the actual marshalling/serialization and network communication that takes place when a consumer invokes a method on a remote service.

The ECF Architecture allows the use of multiple distribution providers. Further, ECF's open APIs and implementations allows the creation of new distribution providers that may be based upon existing providers or may be created from scratch using any desired transport protocols and/or serialization formats.

Remote Services API

ECF's API for distribution providers is called the Remote Services API (RSAPI). An implementation of this API is the only thing required of distribution provider implementations for them to be successfully used as a standards/compliant implementation of RS/RSA.

Symbolic Name: org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice
Minimum EE: J2SE-1.5+
Dependencies

  • Framework: OSGi R5+
  • ECF Core Bundles: org.eclipse.ecf, org.eclipse.ecf.identity
  • org.eclipse.equinox.concurrent.future bundle
  • org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice.asyncproxy bundle version 1.X (Java 7) or 2.X (Java 8)

Remote Service API Javadoc

All RSA distribution providers implement the Remote Services API.

Generic Provider

All the generic providers are based upon a tcp-based asynchronous messaging transport.

OSGi Configuration Types/ECF Container Types

ecf.generic.server
ecf.generic.client
ecf.generic.ssl.server
ecf.generic.ssl.client

For example, to export an instance of MyServiceImpl

// Set required OSGi standard service property
props.put("service.exported.interfaces","*");
// Set OSGI standard service.exported.configs property to ecf.generic.server
props.put("service.exported.configs","ecf.generic.server");
// Set ecf.generic.server-specific properties
props.put("ecf.generic.server.port","2121");
props.put("ecf.generic.server.hostname","mycompanyhost.com");
// With service properties, will export as a remote service via an instance of ecf.generic.server 
bundleContext.registerService(MyService.class, new MyServiceImpl(), props);

See here for a description for generic-provider-specific service properties such as ecf.generic.server.hostname, ecf.generic.server.port, etc.

r-OSGi Provider

OSGi Configuration Types/ECF Container Types

ecf.r_osgi.peer
ecf.r_osgi.peer.ws (see r-OSGi over Websockets below)
ecf.r_osgi.peer.wss (see r-OSGi over Websockets below)

For example, to export an instance of MyServiceImpl

// Set required OSGi standard service property
props.put("service.exported.interfaces","*");
// Set OSGI standard service.exported.configs property to ecf.generic.server
props.put("service.exported.configs","ecf.r_osgi.peer");
// With service properties, will export as a remote service via an instance of ecf.generic.server 
bundleContext.registerService(MyService.class, new MyServiceImpl(), props);

See here for a description for rosgi-provider System properties.

r-OSGi over Websockets

The two r-OSGi providers: ecf.r_osgi.peer.ws, and ecf.r_osgi.peer.wss are supported by adding two additional bundles: ch.ethz.iks.r_osgi.transport.http, and Java Websocket. These two bundles are available in the ECF Github Websockets Repo, at the following paths:
ch.ethz.iks.r_osgi.transport.http: bundles/ch.ethz.iks.r_osgi.transport.http
java_websocket: bundles/java_websocket

These two bundles must currently be built from source.
