Re: [equinox-dev] Calling Equinox close command by code

[Neil Bartlett <njbartlett@xxxxxxxxx>]

In my opinion, a bundle should not call System.exit(). What if it is
deployed to a large application that merely embeds OSGi somewhere? You
just killed the app server...

It should be the responsibility of the launcher code (i.e. the code
external to OSGi that created and started the framework) to shutdown
the JVM if necessary.
