A couple routine(s) to detect running within OSGi:

Option A:

public static boolean detectOsgi() throws Exception {
try {
First.class.getClassLoader().loadClass("org.osgi.framework.BundleReference");
return true;
} catch (Exception e) {
// fail.. not in OSGi
System.out.println("\n\n\t\t No OSGi detected: " + e.getMessage());
}
return false;
}

Option B:

this.getClass().getClassLoader() instanceof org.osgi.framework.BundleReference
