Description

Background:
Apache Celix (incubator) is an implementation of the OSGi specification adapted to C. It will follow the API as close as possible, but since the OSGi specification is written primarily for Java, there will be differences (Java is OO, C is procedural). An important aspect of the implementation is interoperability between Java and C. This interoperability is achieved by porting and implementing the Remote Services specification in Celix.

Proposal:
Implement the Event Admin Service Specification (4.3 specification) for Apache Celix adapted to C.
The Event Admin Specification is part of the compendium specification of OSGi (see [1]) and describes an architecture and API for a event based publish/subscribe service.

Needed knowledge:
C,Java & OSGi
