Cannot access OSGI service provided in Rifidi Edge Server (RFID Middleware)

[Faisal_2]

I have installed Rifidi edge server (open source RFID middleware provide services as osgi bundles) on windows7 and I am trying to develop a java application to connect and read data from edge server.

1) Firstly I used Spring with following code to get JMS ConnectionFactory object which I am getting in my application successfully but it gives exception on creating JMS Session and I dont know how to create JMS Topic object.

 <bean id="connectionFactory"  class="org.apache.activemq.spring.ActiveMQConnectionFactory">
    <property name ="brokerURL" value="tcp://localhost:1099"/>
    <property name="useAsyncSend" value="true"/>
 </bean>

2) Secondly I use Eclipse IDE to create an OSGi bundle having following code and deploy it in Rifidi Edge Server, I am getting JMS ConnectionFactory object and JMS Session object but dont know how to get JMS Topic (Destination) object.

<bean id="connectionFactory"  class="org.apache.activemq.spring.ActiveMQConnectionFactory">
    <property name ="brokerURL" value="vm://externalBroker"/>
    <property name="useAsyncSend" value="true"/>
 </bean> 

To create JMS Topic object I need

<bean id="topic" class="org.apache.activemq.command.ActiveMQTopic">
    <constructor-arg value="?"/>
</bean>

But what to write in place of "?" as nothing is given on the Rifidi site.

3) Then I created an OSGi bundle with code as given on http://wiki.rifidi.net/index.php?title=EdgeServerJMS and deploy it on Rifidi edge Server , it is not working.

<bean id="jmsContainer"
class="org.springframework.jms.listener.SimpleMessageListenerContainer">
<property name="autoStartup" value="true" />
<property name="connectionFactory" ref="confac" />
<property name="destination" ref="internalMB" />
<property name="messageListener" ref="myMessageListener" />
<property name="acceptMessagesWhileStopping" value="true" />
</bean>

<osgi:reference id="confac" interface="javax.jms.ConnectionFactory" bean-   name="internalBrokerConFac" />

 <osgi:reference id="internalMB" interface="javax.jms.Topic" bean-name="internalDest" />

 <bean id="myMessageListener" class="org.myapp.JMSConsumer"/>


It is not working when I am using these lines


<osgi:reference id="confac" interface="javax.jms.ConnectionFactory" bean-name="internalBrokerConFac" />

<osgi:reference id="internalMB" interface="javax.jms.Topic" bean-name="internalDest" />

I am not getting any error message.I expect to get POJO provided by Rifidi Edge Server using osgi:reference tag in spring xml. But on doing this my Osgi Bundle is not reading xml. I am exactly following these links wiki.rifidi.net/index.php?title=Edge_Server_Architecture wiki.rifidi.net/index.php?title=EdgeServerJMS to access services of rifidi edge server.

I have created & exported my own service in OSGI bundle & accessing it from another OSGI bundle using osgi:reference... tag in spring xml, Bundle is reading xml & I am getting object from exported service easily.But when I am trying to access services exported by Rifidi edge server,my bundle is not reading xml.

If any one can solve this problem I would be very Thankful
