Guillaume Nodet closed FELIX-3361. ---------------------------------- Resolution: Won't Fix I do understand what you say, but that's the first case I mentioned. In my second case, the StartLevel#getStartLevel() > Bundle#getStartLevel() but the start level thread is still running. So I think this situation is not really in the use case mentioned in the spec (which is StartLevel#getStartLevel() < Bundle#getStartLevel()). Anyway, given fixing this won't really prevent my problem since the behavior is different depending on the exact timing between StartLevel#setStartLevel() and Bundle#start(), i'll just close the issue. For reference, the problem has been captured by http://team.ops4j.org/browse/PAXEXAM-356 and we have a working work around. > Bundle#start does not comply with the spec > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: FELIX-3361 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3361 > Project: Felix > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: framework-4.0.2 > Reporter: Guillaume Nodet > > The spec says: "When the start method returns without an exception, the > state of the bundle will either be ACTIVE or STARTING, depending on the > declared activation policy and whether it was used. If the start method > throws an exception, then the bundle will not be in either of these states > and the stop method will not be called for this Bundle Activator instance." > However there is a case where this does not happen, which is when the start > level thread is already running > I think the Bundle#start should either activate the bundle or wait for the > bundle to be activated before returning in order to comply with the spec. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
