------------------------------------
Summary: Support parallel bundle starting
Key: FELIX-5383
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5383
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: File Install
Affects Versions: fileinstall-3.5.4
Reporter: Matt Magoffin
I have an application that uses Felix File Install to start a set of bundles
that use Blueprint configuration extensively, but with the poll time disabled
({{felix.fileinstall.poll = 0}}) because I only want the bundles started at
application startup time. Sometimes one bundle might have a Blueprint service
dependency provided by another bundle such that when started and that other
bundle has not been started yet causes a service timeout. The ordering File
Install uses to start bundles is indeterminate (a {{HashSet}} is passed to
{{startBundles(Collection<Bundle> bundles)}}) so I thought a good solution
would be to start bundles in parallel, so if one bundle gets stuck when
starting, waiting for a Blueprint service to become available, other bundles
can continue to be started under the assumption one of them will be providing
that service "soon".
