Hi,
I’m looking for a solution, but cannot come up with one. Here is the scenario:
I have a BundleTracker to track bundles with a certain header, i.e.
implementing an extender. The extender is interested in
RESOLVED|STARTING|ACTIVE|STOPPING.
When a bundle is installed, but not started, the addingBundle() is called and
the extender processes the bundle. Now, I want to start the bundle based on
whether it is configured to be started or not, i.e. I am looking at CM
configuration to determine whether to start the bundle or not.
Now, here’s the problem: You cannot start the bundle in the callback of
BundleTrackerCustomizer.addingBundle().
If you do, the bundle will start, but your Tracker will not receive any events
for the Bundle, since it hasn’t returned yet from the addingBundle() callback
to indicate interest in the Bundle.
What I need here is to be able to return from the addingBundle() callback to
indicate interest and then trigger the start of the Bundle.
How do I do that?
This is event driven. The callback to addingBundle() is the main event. Now, I
need another event that the bundle is tracked in order to trigger the start
such that the same extender BundleTrackerCustomizer starts receiving the events
for the start of the Bundle.
Any ideas, anyone?
Thanks,
Tim.
P.S: I doubt that setting the start level would help here. Since the
BundleTrackerCustomizer.addingBundle() call hasn’t returned yet, it will not
receive any events for the Bundle. Even if the start level is changed by
another thread, there is no guarantee that the BundleTracker returns before the
start level thread starts the bundle._______________________________________________
