Aaron Whiteside commented on AS7-4324:
--------------------------------------

I think I am still seeing this issue because I am deploying a large amount of bundles and the deployment scanner is executing halfway through my # cp *.jar deployments/ command so it only sees half the bundles, then it executes again and sees the other half but nothing resolves correctly... because that is treated as two different deployment batches?

Apache Felix provides an auto-deploy feature where it monitors a directory for changes and enacts these changes. If there are unresolved bundles present and a new bundle is installed that provides the necessary packages it will automatically refresh those dependent bundles.

It may not be required by the specification, but it's actually really handy for development. If JBoss won't support this feature how am I to successfully deploy large batches of bundles?

> It has to be possible to deploy a large set of bundles at the same time without triggering the resolution of each bundle individually.
> Currently, if you deploy multiple bundles either through CLI or via the hot deployment folder the deployer processes each bundle individually. If you try to deploy 287 bundles with interdependencies, this would mean you have to install them in the absolute correct order or else the deployer finds missing dependencies and undeploys the bundle again.
> The OSGi framework API allows for installation of multiple bundles before calling a single refresh call to trigger the re-wiring. The deployer needs to support a mechanism similar to this as well.
