Accessing OSGI Services across bundles in Java DSL in OSGi Blueprint

Issue

• We are trying to load an OSGI service from another bundle into Java DSL routebuilder and having some difficulties finding exactly how to do that. We have found the following article:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Fuse_ESB_Enterprise/7.1/html/Deploying_into_the_Container/files/DeploySimple-CamelRegistry.html

• The link provides information about how to invoke it directly in the route, but we would like to access the service before we use it within the route. Is there some kind of annotation or method within the registry to access this service and set it into an object so we can access all methods on it?

• We have been looking into using something like getContext().getRegistry().lookupByName("myService"), but we are not sure if this is correct nor how to really test it properly.
