[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-169?page=comments#action_12446958 ] Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-169: ---------------------------------------
I think you would want Felix.shutdown() to be synchronous. > Shutdown of Felix through Felix.shutdown() does not call custom activator > stop methods > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FELIX-169 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-169 > Project: Felix > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Felix Meschberger > Attachments: FELIX-169.diff > > > When starting Felix through Felix.start() a list of BundleActivator objects > may be handed in. Additionally, the SystemBundle adds some more > BundleActivators (e.g. the URLHandlersActivator. When stopping Felix through > the SystemBundle.stop() method, a separate thread is started, which calls the > Felix.shutdown() method, which ultimately calls back into the > SystemBundle.stop() method, which now - amongst other things - calls the > BundleActivator.stop() method of the additional BundleActivators. > If shutting Felix down through Felix.shutdown() directly, a separate thread > is not started, and hence the BundleActivator.stop() methods are not called. > I assume, the test for the m_shutdownThread field in the SystemBundle.stop > method is superfluous as this field is only set then Felix is stopped through > the system bundle. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
