Of course you can also define the consumption of services via DS.

Create a new plugin "de.vogella.osgi.ds.quoteconsumer". Do not use a template, do not create an activator. Import the package "de.vogella.osgi.quote" in MANIFEST.MF on the tab "Dependencies".

Create the following class.

			
package de.vogella.osgi.ds.quoteconsumer;

import de.vogella.osgi.quote.IQuoteService;

public class QuoteConsumer {
	private IQuoteService service;

	public void quote() {
		System.out.println(service.getQuote());
	}
	
	// Method will be used by DS to set the quote service
	public synchronized void setQuote(IQuoteService service) {
		System.out.println("Service was set. Thank you DS!");
		this.service = service;
		// I know I should not use the service here but just for demonstration
		System.out.println(service.getQuote());
	}

	// Method will be used by DS to unset the quote service
	public synchronized void unsetQuote(IQuoteService service) {
		System.out.println("Service was unset. Why did you do this to me?");
		if (this.service == service) {
			this.service = null;
		}
	}
}

		

Create the Folder "OSGI-INF" and create a new "Component Definition" in this folder.

This time we will use a service. Maintain the "Referenced Services".

Make the relationship to the bind / unbind method via by selecting your entry can pressing "Edit".

The result component.xml should look like:

			
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<scr:component xmlns:scr="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/scr/v1.1.0" name="de.vogella.osgi.ds.quoteconsumer">
   <implementation class="de.vogella.osgi.ds.quoteconsumer.QuoteConsumer"/>
   <reference bind="setQuote" cardinality="1..1" interface="de.vogella.osgi.quote.IQuoteService" name="IQuoteService" policy="static" unbind="unsetQuote"/>
</scr:component>

		

The result MANIFEST.MF should look like:

			
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
Bundle-Name: Quoteconsumer
Bundle-SymbolicName: de.vogella.osgi.ds.quoteconsumer
Bundle-Version: 1.0.4
Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: JavaSE-1.6
Import-Package: de.vogella.osgi.quote
Service-Component: OSGI-INF/component.xml

		

Export your plugin and install it via: install file:c:\temp\bundles\plugins \de.vogella.osgi.ds.quoteconsumer.jar

"If you start the bundle now with "start id_of_your_bundle" you should get the feedback that the service was set and one quote should be returned
