But a bundle does not need to be resolved at installation and probably shouldn't be.
For example if you are installing an application consisting of several bundles, you will need to get all the bundles installed before you try to resolve any of them since they may have package dependencies amongst themselves. A framework implementation is free to resolve a bundle at any time after installation and before starting. The resolveBundles methods can be used to force a bundle or bundles to be resolved upon request.

I am not saying resolving while starting, but resolving while installing. If resolution happens at the time of installation itself then there is no need for explicit methods like resolveBundles(). I still didnt understand who is going to use this method. Regards, Kiran Bharadwaj Sneak preview the all-new Yahoo.com. It's not radically different. Just radically better. _______________________________________________ osgi-dev mailing list osgi-dev@bundles.osgi.org http://bundles.osgi.org/mailman/listinfo/osgi-dev _______________________________________________ osgi-dev mailing list osgi-dev@bundles.osgi.org http://bundles.osgi.org/mailman/listinfo/osgi-dev
