> Key: FELIX-2787
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2787
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: File Install
> Affects Versions: fileinstall-3.1.4
> Reporter: Richard S. Hall
> Assignee: Guillaume Nodet
> Fix For: fileinstall-3.1.12
>
>
> File Install has been known to cause deadlocks, race conditions, and other
> sorts of spurious issues. One of the main reasons for this is that File
> Install is pretty aggressive in its management of bundles. This has caused us
> to improve the framework to deal with its aggressiveness, but still it is not
> perfect. We have seen people wanting to introduce a delay value for
> management, etc. We also see issues where the framework is trying to shut
> down and File Install is going right behind the framework restarting bundles
> as the framework stops them. It would be better if File Install monitored the
> starting/stopping status for the framework and only performed its management
> activities while the framework were active. This means File Install's
> management threads should not do their processing when the framework is not
> in the ACTIVE state. This will be a good improvement, although it won't
> completely eliminate the window, since this is a check-then-act situation.
> However, as long as the threads check the status on each process loop, the
> window will be significantly reduced.
