I'm trying to upgrade to OpenSAML 3 in an OSGi bundle running on Apache Karaf (4.0.5) using opensaml servicemix bundle (org.apache.servicemix.bundles:org.apache.servicemix.bundles.opensaml:jar:3.2.0_1).
A test that parses the SAML is working so I think I'm on the right track. However, if I install the bundle on Karaf I get a "resource not found" error when it's trying to load default-config.xml.

AbstractXMLObjectProviderInitializer is loading the resource as follows (resource is default-config.xml):
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(resource)
default-config.xml is located in the root of the (opensaml) jar which makes me wonder if that's the reason it cannot be found.
I'm using the maven-bundle-plugin in my project and on top of the dependency and various uses of opensaml classes I provided explicit imports (Import-Package) for the following packages:
org.opensaml.core.xml.config,
org.opensaml.saml.config,
org.opensaml.xmlsec.config,
Is there anything I am missing in my bundle's manifest or elsewhere to make this work? I presume the opensaml bundle released by servicemix itself should be working as is...
I found a solution to the "resource not found" issue but it's a hack more than anything...
After stumbling across the SO post Better handling of Thread Context ClassLoader in OSGi I adapted my code to set the classloader of the InitializationService before calling it, the XML in question is now found during initialization.
// adapt TCCL
Thread thread = Thread.currentThread();
ClassLoader loader = thread.getContextClassLoader();
thread.setContextClassLoader(InitializationService.class.getClassLoader());
try {
InitializationService.initialize();
} finally {
// reset TCCL
thread.setContextClassLoader(loader);
}
However, I've noticed that the SPI config org.opensaml.core.config.Initializer in my bundle does not get loaded and I have not figured out a proper fix for that yet. My current workaround is explicitly calling the init methods of initializers I need:
org.opensaml.saml.config.XMLObjectProviderInitializerorg.opensaml.saml.config.SAMLConfigurationInitializerorg.opensaml.xmlsec.config.XMLObjectProviderInitializerMind that the following are required as well but get initialized per default (because of SPI config org.opensaml.core.config.Initializer in opensaml bundle - which does get loaded):
