Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-2646:
------------------------------------------
Makes sense and looks good.
The only drawback is, that it requires Java 1.4 or better -- but to me this
presents absolutely no problem. But cannot tell about embedded uses (Android
comes to mind).
> [Framework] Locking could be used to prevent concurrent access to a single
> bundle cache

> Currently, the framework completely ignores concurrent access to the same
> bundle cache and leaves it as a configuration issue. The downside of this
> approach is that a mistaken configuration could corrupt your bundle cache. We
> could avoid this by introducing some sort of bundle cache locking protocol
> using java.nio.channels.FileLock. I think it would be sufficient to simply
> implement a fail-fast locking protocol.
