             Summary: Configuration updates may be missed when the component is 
restarting
                 Key: FELIX-5242
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5242
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Dependency Manager
    Affects Versions: org.apache.felix.dependencymanager-r1
            Reporter: Pierre De Rop
            Assignee: Pierre De Rop
             Fix For: org.apache.felix.dependencymanager-r9


When a component has some required dependencies, and also has a configuration 
dependency, then some configuration updates may be missed in the following 
situation:

1) the component has lost a required dependency: it is stopped.
2) the component is restarting because the lost required dependency becomes 
available again.
3) at the same time, concurrently, a configuration update is taking place.

Then, during this racy condition, it is possible (but not systematically) that 
the component misses the configuration update.

I have a test which demontrates this issue, as well as a patch. I will commit 
it soon.
