In this chapter, we will look at how OSGi's use of ClassLoaders permits bundle separation, and what effect this has on libraries that mistakenly assume there is only one ClassLoader per JVM. We will cover the Java ServiceLoader and describe the problems and solutions it has in an OSGi framework. Finally, we will look at how to upgrade such libraries so that they are OSGi compatible.
