disconnect cache or performance enhancement on update [message #100686] Tue, 30 October 2007 16:58 Go to next message

Hi,

I was actually developping a bundle in eclipse that can manage some
"Dynamic bundle". This "Dynamic bundle" are in fact Plugin Project in my
workspace that I install and start in current framework...

My problem is that these "Dynamics bundles" are often reloaded and this is
a performance problem. I view in debug mode that the osgi cache take a
long time to copy / remove files in the cache. I would like to disconnect
the cache for these specifics dynamics bundles.

Anyone have an idea of what can I do ?

Thanks for your help

Laurent

How are you installing the bundle? Are you using a file URL or a
FileInputStream? If so I can see why it is a performance problem. This
forces the framework to copy the complete project contents into its own
cache.

When launching eclipse from eclipse (i.e. self-hosting) we use what are
called reference URLs. This allows the framework to load and use the
content of the bundle from the location specified as-is without copying
the content into the framework cache. Something like this can be used:

URL bundleReference =
new URL("reference:file:<path to workspace project>");
BundleContest context = getContext();
// just use a String URL and let the framework use the URL string
// as the location
context.installBundle(bundleReference.toExternalForm());
// or pick your own location and open the URL stream first
context.installBundle(
"some dynamic location", bundleReference.openStream());


Currently the reference protocal only supports "referring" to another
file: URL.

HTH

Tom.

Hi Tom,

I effectively use "reference:file" to load bundle without caching all
this one.
Thanks Laurent.
