Can you be more specific on the need for the EBA installer to parse the blueprint xml? Is it to validate that services exported by the EBA are actually defined in some bundle?

If that is the case, then would it be possible to install the bundle(s) first and validate exported services against those registered by the various bundles?

Hi,

I think the simple answer is probably yes. I think it is called once to know 
how to resolve the application, and the second time because we have installed 
the framework.

When processing an application (EBA) we parse all of the blueprint.xml 
(including custom namespaces) as part of the application processing for all 
bundles within the EBA.  The net result is that we do all of this parsing twice 
because we also must parse and processes the information in the 
BlueprintContainer.

Why is it necessary to parse the blueprint.xml during EBA installation in the 
application module?

I stumbled on this because I was making some modifications to a custom 
namespace handler and noticed that it was being invoked twice for the same 
elements.  It seems that this is not desirable.  Should all namespace handlers 
be coded in such a way that they can be invoked multiple times for the exact 
same elements?
