It depends on if it is only exporting or exporting AND importing the packages.

If it is only exporting, then the old packages from the old revision will be available and so will the new packages from the new revision. Of course, importing bundles will continue to import from the old bundle, so you will need a refresh to get everything to be in the same class space.

To put a finer point on it any new bundles that resolve foo will resolve to the old bundle archive?

If is is exporting AND importing it will be wired to the existing foo and bar, but will export cdr 2.0.0 and car. Of course, if there are any uses constraints among the packages, then this might not be possible.

I'm probably being dense but I don't think that I am following who is importing and exporting what. Could restate the above scenario and its consequences?

It seems that much of this is logically "intuited" from the spec.

Let's say I have a bundle that exports packages com.a.foo:1.0.0, com.a.bar:1.0.0, and com.a.cdr:1.0.0. There are a number of bundles that import com.a.foo.

Now, we update the bundle and the new bundle archive exports com.a.foo:1.0.0, com.a.bar:1.0.0, com.a.cdr:2.0.0, and com.a.car: 1.0.0. I'm not sure what happens. I think that since the old bundle archive has an export, com.a.foo:1.0.0, that's being used nothing happens until a framework restart or the package com.a.foo is refreshed.

Am I correct?
