yes, looking at the core OSGi spec, page 48:
"Before a bundle is resolved, all its Fragments must be attached."
but earlier on in the spec, page 36, I found:
"The framework must recognize the following directives for the
Bundle-SymbolicName header:
• fragment-attachment – Defines how fragments are allowed to be
attached, see the fragments
in Fragment Bundles on page 68. The following values are valid for
this directive:
• always – Fragments can attach at any time while the host is
resolved or during the process of resolving.
• never – No fragments are allowed.
• resolve-time – Fragments must only be attached during resolving."
though it doesn't state what the default setting is (perhaps 'resolve-time'
?)
anyway, I don't think we support the "fragment-attachment" directive in
Felix yet...
