Valentin Mahrwald commented on ARIES-59:
----------------------------------------
See also ARIES-60 for the issue of blocking the blueprint extender itself.
> Optional service reference cause blueprint to wait
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARIES-59
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-59
> Project: Aries
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Blueprint
> Reporter: Valentin Mahrwald
> Assignee: Valentin Mahrwald
>
> Section 121.7.9 suggests with its definition of "optional" ...
> "optional - Optional indicates that the satisfaction of this reference is not
> relevant for any registered services, or for the grace period."
> that optional service references should not cause a wait when the application
> tries to use the service. However, in the current implementation the
> blueprint container will block on optional service references as well as
> mandatory ones.
> This is quite a major problem since it means the blueprint extender itself
> can get blocked up if enough (3) bean init methods try to use optional and
> not-satisfied service references.
