Integrate SCR with Felix
------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-132
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-132
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Declarative Services
    Affects Versions: 0.8.0
         Environment: org.apache.felix.scr project, Rev. 427625
            Reporter: Felix Meschberger
         Attachments: SCR_Activator_fm20060830.diff

Currently any bundle wanting to contribute components has to implement an 
Activator extending the GenericActivator (or refer to the GenericActivator in
the Manifest.MF. Additionally start/stop semantics of the SCR bundle are not 
implemented.

Attached is a patch, which enhances the current Activator class as follows:

   * On start load components of active bundles
   * On stop unload all loaded components
   * listen for bundle state changes to load/unload components:
       * on BundleEvent.STARTED: Components are loaded
       * on BundleEvent.STOPPING: Components are unloaded

The BundleContext instance needed to load the Components is retrieved using the 
BundleImpl.getContext() method, which is accessed through reflection on the 
bundle instance.

As a consequence of this patch, the GenericActivator class may be rebuilt into 
a proper component loader and need not be used as an activator for component 
bundles.
