Re: [osgi-dev] Query on resolving
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.

Re: [osgi-dev] Query on resolving
Bundles are automatically resolved sometime before they are started, but it depends on the framework precisely when this happens. There is no way to explicitly resolve a bundle other than trying to start it. In some cases you might only want to resolve the bundle, but not start it, so this new method makes that possible. Ultimately, it is exposing a life cycle method that was previously hidden. -> richard kiran bharadwaj wrote: > Hello All, > >I have a basic query regarding the osgi core framework. > I actually didnt understand the reason for providing the > resolveBundles() method > in the packageadmin.
