Yes, we could use FrameworkEvent.STARTED, but only if we are sure that we 
listen for this event when it is fired. If the code, which listens for it, is 
executed after the framework is started, then it will never get the event. This 
happens in an Activator of a bundle – it may be executed during the initial 
start of the framework, or after the framework is started (for example on the 
first start of the bundle after installing it). Therefore we need to be able to 
check the framework state in one and the same way in both cases.

Yes, you should use the FrameworkEvent.STARTED event for this. You should 
probably open a bug so we can investigate the current behavior anyway to see if 
the comment is valid.

[equinox-dev] Starting the system bundle

Hello,

We are implementing logic which depends on the system bundle being put in 
ACTIVE state after all bundles, which should be running, are started. However, 
it turned out that actually the system bundle is put in ACTIVE state just 
before the bundles are started. This is evident from the method 
StartLevelManager.doSetStartLevel(…), which is called from the EquinoxLauncher. 
There is a comment in the code, that putting the bundle in ACTIVE state “should 
be done just before firing the STARTED event for the system bundle” but is done 
earlier, because “some depend on the system bundle being in the ACTIVE state 
when they are starting”. Do you think it is possible to change the current 
behavior and put the system bundle in ACTIVE state after the other bundles are 
started, as it is in the OSGi spec?

Kind regards,
Lazar Kirchev_______________________________________________
