Hi all, I would like to hear the comments for the solution proposal for updating a bundle within an EBA, and the related JIRAs are:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMODEVTOOLS-718 Update a bundle within an EBA https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-5861 Update a bundle within an EBA The point of the JIRA is to ONLY re-deploy the updated bundle in EBA instead of re-assembling and re-deploying the whole EBA to save the time in the case that the EBA is huge. The rough proposal is: Step 1. update a specified bundle using osgi:update Step 2. osgi:refresh the other bundles in the EBA to refresh the links to the updated bundle This means that the updated bundle will be only in the cache, and in the following cases the updated bundle will be lost, and the original bundle included in EBA archive file comes back. 1. Start geronimo server with -clean option 2. Restart EBA application in Admin console -> Application EBAs This new feature is designed for application development phase to speed up application testing, and it can be turned off in GEP in case that user wants to re-deploy the whole EBA with any update. Any comments on the solution? -- Best regards, Han Hong Fang (Janet) hanhongfang AT apache.org
