Corona management framework access

!!Obtaining the Management Enabling environment!!

The Management runtime is exposed as a service in the OSGi environment. The easiest way to obtain a reference to the Management service is to use declarative services. A sample declartive service description that specifies a dependency on the Management environment and a WSDM management binding is given below:

<component name="SimpleJavaObject" immediate="true" >
	<implementation class="org.eclipse.corona.wsdm.example.SimpleJavaObject" />
	<reference name="ContributionManager" interface="org.eclipse.corona.management.common.ContributionManager" cardinality="1..1" policy="static" />
	<reference name="WSDM" interface="org.eclipse.corona.management.binding.Binding" cardinality="1..1" policy="static" target="(provider=WSDM)"/>
</component>

The following code would then be place in org.eclipse.corona.wsdm.example.SimpleJavaObject:

package org.eclipse.corona.wsdm.example;


import org.osgi.framework.ServiceReference;
import org.osgi.service.component.ComponentContext;
import org.eclipse.corona.management.common.ContributionManager;

public class SimpleJavaObject {

        ContributionManager manager;
	
	//Declarative Services methods
	protected void activate(ComponentContext ctx)
	{
		ServiceReference ref = ctx.getBundleContext().getServiceReference(ContributionManager.class.getName());
		manager = (ContributionManager)ctx.getBundleContext().getService(ref);
	}
	
	protected void deactivate(ComponentContext ctxt)
	{
		manager.remove(this);
	}
	

	//The rest of the class properties and operations
}

The ContributionManager instance defined by manager provides the entry point into the Management runtime.
