[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of OSGi Integration] - Re: Runtime and bundle lifecycle/dependency resolution

[thomas.diesler@jboss.com]

The fundamental problem is that a BundleContext.installBundle() does not attempt to resolve the just installed bundle. The information of whether a bundle can be resolved is therefore not available when BundleContext.installBundle() returns.

Triggering the resolve process varies from framework to framework and in the simplest case will probably boil down to 


  | 
  | boolean startResolve()
  | {
  |    try
  |    {
  |       bundle.start()
  |       return true;
  |    }
  |    catch (BundleException ex)
  |    {
  |       return false;
  |    }
  | 

The above is no good however because it unintentionally starts the bundle.

I'll have a look at Felix hot deployment - they must have the same problem.
