Re: [virgo-dev] Framework hooks progress
Even after "reverse" merging master into the bug330776-framework-hooks branch, the branch is functionally in good shape: all the tests pass and vsh now functions correctly. The branch is pushed to master.

I am part way through moving the region-specific logic from the hooks into policies associated with the regions. Ultimately, I'm aiming for a directed graph of regions connected by arcs representing package, service, and perhaps bundle, import policies. This is some way off. The hard nuts to crack are how to handle alternative paths between regions (which are equivalent to a logical OR in terms of filtering) and transitive dependencies along paths (which are equivalent to a logical AND in terms of filtering). This generality is hard to visualise in the current implicit graph with only two nodes and one arc!

The most recent git commits on the branch tell the full story for anyone who's interested:

The console output is as follows - the addition of the user region factory bundle is the biggest change apart from the basic single framework effect on bundle id numbering and visibility:

Yesterday I got all the kernel tests passing. However, the kernel still failed to initialise when processing initialArtifacts. I discovered that the resolver hook is not driven in some situations and raised bug 333071 to request that this be implemented in Equinox.

Meanwhile I found a temporary workaround and the kernel now starts successfully (although the vsh command manifests some bugs which I will deal with in due course).

I am now going to focus on reducing the technical debt in the branch, initially by refactoring and writing unit tests. I expect to be working on the branch for the next few weeks and will merge master into the branch from time to time so I don't fall too far behind.

That test failure appears to have been due to a configuration problem in some earlier tests. One test (DeployerLogMessageTests) fails because I have not yet implemented a service registry find hook (probably an early task for next week's sprint) to provide the necessary isolation between services in one region and bundles consuming those services in the other region.

Then when I package and run the kernel, it fails resolving the contents of the plan referred to by the initialArtifacts user region property. This is odd as the InitialArtifactDeployer uses the deployer service which works successfully in the deployer tests. More debugging required.

While we are feeling jolly, this reminds me of the old chestnut:

Real Programmers' programs never work right the first time. But if you throw them on the machine they can be patched into working order in "only a few" 30-hour debugging sessions.

I think that's what you call test driven development. ;-)

Tom Watson suggested a workaround to enable the resolver hook to be driven for offline State resolutions and it seems to work. Details in bug 332771 and changes pushed to the branch.

Now all the kernel tests appear to pass except the last deployer test TransitiveConstraintFailureDiagnosisTests for which the JVM crashes, which usually means a heap or permgen issue. I will continue to investigate this.

My work to rebase Virgo's region support on the framework hooks was going reasonably well until I discovered that the resolver hook is not driven for resolutions in offline State objects. I have raised bug 332771 [1] against Equinox to cover this, but this bug won't be worked on until the New Year.

Meanwhile I have pushed my changes to the kernel branch bug330776-framework-hooks if anyone's interested. I may experiment with pruning the unwanted kernel bundles from the side state as a temporary workaround, but I don't know how well that would work as it's only an approximation to the true requirement and I haven't checked the feasibility yet.
