Konrad Windszus commented on JCRVLT-195:
----------------------------------------
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3747 needs to be considered in the
context as well, as by default the package manager stops all JCR Installer
activities while installing a package. That is a problem for packages
containing all necessary stuff as subpackages, because in that case the bundles
would then only become deployed after the package have been extracted.
> Support OSGi bundle dependencies
> --------------------------------

> Key: JCRVLT-195
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCRVLT-195
> Project: Jackrabbit FileVault
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Packaging
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Assignee: Tobias Bocanegra
> Priority: Major
>
> FileVault Packages support both internal and external hooks. Internal hooks
> are JARs which are part of the package itself. External hooks are provided
> through some classloader (usually through the Bundle Classloader in an OSGi
> context, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCRVLT-116). Installing a
> package depending on an external hook class which is not found, leads to an
> error.
> Therefore it would be beneficial to explicitly add a dependency from the
> package referencing an external hook towards the OSGi bundle providing the
> hook. Only that way it can be assured, that the installation of this package
> is deferred until that bundle providing the hook is finally active. Currently
> only package dependencies are supported though, which are not enough, as
> there is a delay until the embedded bundle in a package is deployed as well.
