How to access registry programmatically

  • You can get Preferences service reference by OSGi service lookup.
    ServiceReference ref = bc.getServiceReference(PreferencesService.class.getName());
    PreferencesService preferences = (PreferencesService) bc.getService(ref);
    
  • To access the system root
    preferences.getSystemPreferences();
    
  • To access a user root
    prefs = preferences.getUserPreferences(space);
    
  • Store and retrieve value in Preferences
    public void put(String key, String value);
    
    public void putInt(String key, int value);
                       
    public void putLong(String key, long value);
                        
    public void putBoolean(String key, boolean value);
