Hi, In Java9 PlatformImpl.startup was provide as API in Platform which is great but not enough to solve my current problem.
Let me start with the following I can not use Application.launch() to bootstrap my OSGi-Application because this would block endless because if the native launching going on with Eclipse-Native-Launcher. So in Java8 I can make use of the internal code PlatformImpl.startup() method to bootstrap my application. This works perfectly fine. My problem is the shutdown which I need to to know is happening because i need to take action then (persiting the application state). In Java8 because I was already stepping into internals I registered a PlatformImpl.FinishListener and get informed about the shutdown. Unfortunately in Java9 this API has not been published and because of jigsaw I'm not able to access it (which I eventually welcome :-) So here I am now with my Java8-Code I'm unable to get working on Java9. I see the following options: a) make FinishListener API (I would vote against that) b) modify the newly introduced method Platform.startup() to take 2 runnables Platform.startup( Runnable start, Runnable shutdown ) Does that make sense? Is there a chance to get that into JDK9? In fact those 2 runnables are the replacement for Application.start == 1st runnable Application.stop == 2nd runnable Tom -- Thomas Schindl, CTO BestSolution.at EDV Systemhaus GmbH Eduard-Bodem-Gasse 5-7, A-6020 Innsbruck http://www.bestsolution.at/ Reg.
