Exactly. The idea of the startupmanager is to move out what is needed to make other systems work until they stop requiring the launchpad.api. It for the most part is just a couple of stubbed services (or with minimal implementations). We can use them in other launchers if there is a need for it because of old stuff requiring it but I would advice against it where possible. In other words, it is the other way around in regard to the Feature Launcher. It used to implement some of the launchpad.api to make old stuff work but it now stopped doing that. Instead, one can now just install the startupmanager as a bundle as part of a feature (if ones bundles require it). regards, Karl > Regards, > O. > > > -Bertrand > -- Karl Pauls [email protected]
