John Ross reopened ARIES-1435:
------------------------------
A flaw exists with the reasoning provided in the first comment, specifically
with regard to the following sentence.
"To be 'completely satisfied' means (1) the dynamic import does not contain a
wildcard and (2) either (a) the region contains a bundle providing a matching
capability or (b) the region has an edge with a filter that allows a matching
capability."
Examining the sharing policy to see if it already allows a matching capability
and, if so, using that as a criterion to stop walking up the region tree
introduces issues. For example, consider the following scenario.
Root
Cotains provider having Export-Package: a
[sharing policy update Import-Package: a]
Application A
[no sharing policy update required]
Composite A
Import-Package: a;resolution:=optional
[sharing policy update Import-Package: a]
Application B
Contains bundle having woven class with dynanamic import package "a"
Application B contains the bundle whose class was woven with dynamic import
package "a". Composite A, which is the parent of Application B, has a sharing
policy that already allows a matching capability. However, if we stop here, the
requirement will not be satisfied because Application A, the parent of
Composite A, will not let it through from Root. The previous statement will
therefore be amended as follows.
"To be 'completely satisfied' means (1) the dynamic import does not contain a
wildcard and (2) the region contains a bundle providing a matching capability."
> Sharing policy updates for dynamic imports, if necessary, should proceed up
> the subsystem region tree.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Subsystem
> Affects Versions: subsystem-2.0.4
> Reporter: John Ross
> Assignee: John Ross
> Fix For: subsystem-2.0.6
>
>
> Currently, dynamic imports only affect the sharing policy between the region
> of the woven subsystem and the region containing its parent(s). Sharing
> policy updates should continue to wind up the region tree until either the
> dynamic import is satisfied or the root subsystem has been reached.
