Description

The set-property schema conversion rule does not allow one to set a service into a created object.

The following is an example of something that doesn't work (the following will result in an exception but is not visible if log4j isn't set up):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<module id="hivetest" version="1.0.0" package="hivetest">

<service-point id="Comparator" interface="java.util.Comparator">
<create-instance class="impl.TestComparator"/>
</service-point>

<schema id="Obj">
<element name="obj">
<attribute name="attr"/>
<conversion class="impl.Obj"/>
</element>
<element name="sobj">
<attribute name="attr"/>
<rules>
<create-object class="impl.Obj"/>
<invoke-parent method="addElement"/>
<read-content property="attr"/>
<!-- this is the problem line below : -->
<set-property property="comparator" value="service:hivetest.Comparator"/>
</rules>
</element>
</schema>

<configuration-point id="Objs" schema-id="Obj" />

<service-point id="TestService" interface="java.lang.Runnable">
<invoke-factory>
<construct class="impl.TestService">
<set-configuration configuration-id="Objs" property="objs"/>
</construct>
</invoke-factory>
</service-point>

<contribution configuration-id="hivetest.Objs">
<obj attr="test"/>
<obj attr="test2"/>
<sobj>test3</sobj>
</contribution>

</module>

Perhaps a set-service rule would be necessary or the set-property rule made a bit smarter.
