IMHO, reliance on a start levels should be avoided:
- start levels don't scale if you are putting together an application
that combines features created by separate development teams (i.e.,
Feature A has startup sequence, Feature B has startup sequence, they
might be fine if mixed together - or not)
- start levels create rather brittle bootstrap sequences that take an
effort to maintain through releases (from the experience of Equinox)
Agreed. But we are talking about a specific use case here, not in general.
As to the question of DS, let's not forget that it is just an
instrument. From what I understand, its goal is to help developers
work around OSGi complexities. If it does not help, it needs to be fixed.
Yes, but the main complexity it is trying to simplify is handling
dynamism. It doesn't attempt to eliminate dynamism, which is what is
being asked.
