Hello, I'm new to OSGi and Felix and I think I need to get a little help before I spend too much time down blind alleys.
I've got an application that is using Felix in an embedded fashion and we're using OSGi to implement a plugin architecture. One of my main goals is to automatically update any installed plugins from an external OBR. Before I spend any more time trying to write custom code to do this, I'd like to know if there is an existing feature in OSGi or Felix that does this already? I've begun writing code that gets the symbolic name of any installed plugin, then uses this to get all Resources with a given symbolic name from the external OBR. Next, I would see if any of these Resources are a more recent version of what's installed. Finally, I need the framework to use these newer bundles instead of the old ones. I feel like this is a common use case but it's unclear to me if this is already implemented in OSGi, Felix or some other framework.
