Incorrect. A bundle can install URL handlers, which is made available to all other bundles. And those can use it without the service interfaces, i.e. URL abc = new URL( "my://special/url" ); InputStream in = abc.opneStream(); > So why not just maintain the list of stream handlers and content for the > bundle in the Bundle implementation object?

Because the above is dictated by the static public void URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory(URLStreamHandlerFactory fac) method. The JVM only allows it to be set once, not reset, JVM wide, and the JVM will cache the URLStreamHandlers that the factory produces forever. IMHO, very nasty, and I am surprised that Sun hasn't done something about it over all these years. > so what I am suggesting might not make any sense. No, but that is Ok. :o) Cheers Niclas
