Re: [equinox-dev] equinox bundle akin to felix fileinstall

[Raymond Auge <raymond.auge@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sadly, this is an ongoing issue with fileinstall even in the latest release (3.2.6).

It seems that fileinstall thread is interrupted while waiting for the refresh to complete.

I think part of the problem is that file install is not waiting for the refresh operation to complete before attempting to start all the bundles.  See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3414

What I think ends up happening is that file install calls start on the bundles it has just installed after it has called an async refresh packages operation.  This grabs a state change lock for the bundle.  Now this lock prevents the refresh packages background thread to obtain the state change lock for the bundle that is being activated.  You may want to give the latest file install code a try to see if it fixes your issue.

I think the  operation of refreshing for uninstalledBundles and updatedBundles is required, but not for installBundles。And maybe there are some faults just like what Raymond said.

i encoutered  the same problem before.After checked out the code,i found the spilth code in the line of 502(maybe the original code had been modified  somewhere,so the line is not correct maybe,but the code below is right,please check it) in the DirectoryWatcher.java( function process):
 
toRefresh.addAll( uninstalledBundles );
toRefresh.addAll(updatedBundles);
//toRefresh.addAll( installedBundles );

This actually does seem to be the issue. Again I'm not sure who is at fault because internally equinox is performing a refresh on bundles using a separate thread which would clearly seem to violate the code in AbstractBundle.beginStateChange which will quite clearly throw an error it a separate thread has the bundle in a dirty state.

Perhaps there is no need for felix file install to actually force a package refresh? Wouldn't that be automatically done by the framework itself on an install/update/deletion?

Perhaps it's because it's trying to perform the process as a batch?

Here is the exact code in question:

        // Handle deleted artifacts
        // We do the operations in the following order:
        // uninstall, update, install, refresh & start.
        Collection uninstalledBundles = uninstall(deleted);
        Collection updatedBundles = update(modified);
        Collection installedBundles = install(created);
       
        Set toRefresh = new HashSet();
        toRefresh.addAll( uninstalledBundles );
        toRefresh.addAll(updatedBundles);
        toRefresh.addAll( installedBundles );
        findBundlesWithFragmentsToRefresh( toRefresh );
        findBundlesWithOptionalPackagesToRefresh( toRefresh );
        if (toRefresh.size() > 0)
        {
            // Refresh if any bundle got uninstalled or updated.
            refresh((Bundle[]) toRefresh.toArray(new Bundle[toRefresh.size()]));
        }

The error results from the second last line above, but if we comment the line as bdrawn mentions above, then it eliminates the error, but does it leave the system in a state it shouldn't be in?
