JAVA OSGi: InstantiationException with Declarative Services

I'm new to OSGi and am building a first DS-implementation.

开发者_开发百科Everything is coded according to "the book" but when running I get this error:

This is the configuration.xml of the module I want to use in other ones:

<scr:component xmlns:scr="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/scr/v1.1.0" activate="startup" deactivate="shutdown" immediate="true" name="com.mine.logger.storeindb">
   <implementation class="com.mine.logger.internal.storeindb.StoreLog"/>
   <service>
      <provide interface="com.mine.logger.storeindb.IStoreLog"/>
   </service>
</scr:component>

And this is the configuration.xml of the module which will use it:

<scr:component xmlns:scr="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/scr/v1.1.0" name="com.mine.logger.udp">
   <implementation class="com.mine.logger.internal.udp.UdpListener"/>
   <reference bind="setStoreLog" interface="com.mine.logger.storeindb.IStoreLog" name="storelog" unbind="unsetStoreLog"/>
</scr:component>

Code for bind and unbind:

private IStoreLog storeLog;

public void setStoreLog(IStoreLog value)
{
    System.err.println("UdpListener > setStoreLog");
    this.storeLog = value;
}

public void unsetStoreLog(IStoreLog value)
{
    System.err.println("UdpListener > unsetStoreLog");
    if (this.storeLog == value) {
        this.storeLog = null;
    }
}

Any ideas? Thanks, Frank

InstantiationException:

Thrown when an application tries to create an instance of a class using the newInstance method in class Class, but the specified class object cannot be instantiated. The instantiation can fail for a variety of reasons including but not limited to:

• the class object represents an abstract class, an interface, an array class, a primitive type, or void
• the class has no nullary constructor

Is there a public, no-args constructor for com.mine.logger.internal.udp.UdpListener ?

Thanks to Thilo!

added a no-args function and error is gone!

public UdpListener() 
{
    // public, no-args constructor needed for Declarative Services !!!
}

public UdpListener(int port) 
{
    this.port = port;
}

Typo? The IStoreLog field is named storeLog but you say name="storelog" (lower-case l).

I had similar problem, caused by referencing non-public class. Something like:

in ServiceAImpl.java file:

class ServiceBImpl implements Service {
...
}

This was effect of unfortunate refactoring.
