Just because its "quite common" doesn't mean it works well. :-) For
example: the META-INF/services thing really does NOT work well in an OSGi
environment. The ServiceMix folks have to have separate "api" jars for
everything that uses the META-INF/services stuff that use a different lookup
mechanism.
Plus, the whole META-INF/services thing really depends on classpath ordering
and such which users never seem to get right. If CXF is first, it would use
CXF's and the JBoss customizations wouldn't trigger. If JBoss's is first,
they would.
That said, the listener thing Richard proposed has some additional benefits as
well when integrating into other containers such as ServiceMix or Camel.
