I've once written a forum post with some example code on how to load a
file into a Java application using Osmosis:

Maybe it helps you to get started. I've not used the bounding box
feature inside a Java application yet, but I assume it would be possible
to build a pipeline of Osmosis tasks by setting a BoundingBoxFilter
instance as the sink of the reader.

Let us know if you get it to work!
