Summary: Support bundle updates in api regions
Key: SLING-9395
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-9395
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Feature Model
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: Feature Model API Regions Runtime Fragment 1.0.10
API Regions don't support bundles being updated dynamically, which is something
that is sometimes needed to try out newly developed functionality or bugfixes.
To address use cases in this area, we need to allow bundles being updated to a
different version than the one specified initially with the API Regions as long
as the bundle location stays the same.
The algorithm to find what feature a bundle belongs to at runtime will become
the following:
1. Find the feature a bundle belongs to by looking up the bundle-location
association with the feature.
2. If the bundle location is not associated to a feature yet, look up the
bsn+version from the initial, defined list, and associate the new bundle
location with the feature found there.
This approach is similar to how OSGi ConfigAdmin associates a bundle location
with a configuration.
This approach also needs to take into account that package imports and exports
of the bundle might change, like new imports for a newer version
