Unfortunately we cannot do this in frameworkStart() since createBundleFile() is called before this method when reifying the bundles from a cached installation. This happens long before activating the BundleContext for the framework. I think the best we can do for now is to use your first suggestion and stop creating the object in the initializer. > Unfortunately we cannot do this in frameworkStart() since createBundleFile() is

And are we sure that it does not happen after the bundle got stopped? If not, clearing it on stop might be wrong too. Either a bundle should have no state, state while running or always - at least in an ideal world ;-).
Created attachment 198191 [details] patch and updated tests (In reply to comment #2) > And are we sure that it does not happen after the bundle got stopped?

Unfortunately we are not dealing with a plain bundle here, instead it is the framework which still exists even after we have called out to the storage to shutdown. I have decided to fix MRUBundleFileList to be able to reuse the same instance in cases where the storage is reused when the framework is relaunched. This exposed some other issues with the storage manager that I have also fixed up to allow it to be reopened correctly. One other comment on the tests. I put a test "testMRUBundleFileListExpectedToFail" in there that I expect should fail on the Linux machine. But this assumes the linux test machines have a ulimit that prevents 3000 files from being opened at the same time from a single process. I released the patch but commented out the testMRUBundleFileListExpectedToFail method. I need to do some additional testing on Linux to make sure this test will fail and to improve the tests. |
