RE: [equinox-dev] Bundle with Extension can be invoked in RESOLVED state

Parag is correct.

Stopping a bundle runs the BundleActivator.stop method for the bundle and invalidates the BundleContext for the bundle but it does not throw away the class loader or make the bundle unaccessible to the rest of the framework.

Yes. I think you can still access the Bundle and its classes but can not access the BundleContext or interact with the OSGi framework, if the Bundle is not in the ACTIVE state.

Subject: [equinox-dev] Bundle with Extension can be invoked in RESOLVED state

Hi,

I hope I have not totally missed the point, but I have a bundle, let's call it B, that contains an extension for an extension point defined in bundle A. When I invoke a servlet in bundle A the extensions for the extension point are read out and the extension implementations are instantiated. A method getName() is called on the instances to provide a list of the available extensions. This works fine. However if in the osgi console I enter "stop B" and invoke my servlet in bundle A, it still can (and does) access the extension implementation in B. I have verified the state of B by typing "ss" in the osgi console and I'm told its in the RESOLVED state. I can make my scenario work by executing "uninstall B", but am surprised that stop is not enought. I read the javadoc about what RESOLVED means, but somehow this did not IMO clearly state if a bundle in RESOLVED state can be accessed.  
Should a bundle that has been stopped still be accessible?

Best Regards,

André_______________________________________________
