public Interface Framework

Redeclares org.osgi.framework.Bundle.adapt.

Adapt this Framework to the specified type.

Adapting this Framework to the specified type may require certain checks, including security checks, to succeed. If a check does not succeed, then this Framework cannot be adapted and null is returned. If this Framework is not initialized, then null is returned if the specified type is one of the OSGi defined types to which a system bundle can be adapted.

Parameters

<A>

The type to which this Framework is to be adapted.

type:Class<A>

Class object for the type to which this Framework is to be adapted.

Returns:A

The object, of the specified type, to which this Framework has been adapted or null if this Framework cannot be adapted

Redeclares org.osgi.framework.Bundle.getSymbolicName.

Returns the symbolic name of this Framework. The symbolic name is unique for the implementation of the framework. However, the symbolic name "system.bundle" must be recognized as an alias to the implementation-defined symbolic name since this Framework is also a System Bundle.

Initialize this Framework.

This method performs the same function as calling init(FrameworkListener...) with no framework listeners.

Exceptions

BundleException:

If this Framework could not be initialized.

SecurityException:

If the Java Runtime Environment supports permissions and the caller does not have the appropriate AdminPermission[this,EXECUTE] or if there is a security manager already installed and the Constants#FRAMEWORK_SECURITY configuration property is set.

See Also

init(FrameworkListener...)

Initialize this Framework. After calling this method, this Framework must:

• Have generated a new framework UUID.
• Be in the STARTING state.
• Have a valid Bundle Context.
• Be at start level 0.
• Have event handling enabled.
• Have reified Bundle objects for all installed bundles.
• Have registered any framework services. For example, ConditionalPermissionAdmin.
• Be adaptable to the OSGi defined types to which a system bundle can be adapted.
• Have called the start method of the extension bundle activator for all resolved extension bundles.

This Framework will not actually be started until start is called.

This method does nothing if called when this Framework is in the STARTING, ACTIVE or STOPPING states.

All framework events fired by this method are also delivered to the specified FrameworkListeners in the order they are specified before returning from this method. After returning from this method the specified listeners are no longer notified of framework events.

Parameters

listeners:FrameworkListener[]

Zero or more listeners to be notified when framework events occur while initializing the framework. The specified listeners do not need to be otherwise registered with the framework. If a specified listener is registered with the framework, it will be notified twice for each framework event.

Exceptions

BundleException:

If this Framework could not be initialized.

SecurityException:

If the Java Runtime Environment supports permissions and the caller does not have the appropriate AdminPermission[this,EXECUTE] or if there is a security manager already installed and the Constants#FRAMEWORK_SECURITY configuration property is set.

Since

1.2

Redeclares org.osgi.framework.Bundle.start.

Start this Framework.

The following steps are taken to start this Framework:

1. If this Framework is not in the STARTING state, initialize this Framework.
2. All installed bundles must be started in accordance with each bundle's persistent autostart setting. This means some bundles will not be started, some will be started with eager activation and some will be started with their declared activation policy. The start level of this Framework is moved to the start level specified by the beginning start level framework property, as described in the Start Level Specification. If this framework property is not specified, then the start level of this Framework is moved to start level one (1). Any exceptions that occur during bundle starting must be wrapped in a BundleException and then published as a framework event of type FrameworkEvent#ERROR
3. This Framework's state is set to ACTIVE.
4. A framework event of type FrameworkEvent#STARTED is fired

@Override

Exceptions

BundleException:

If this Framework could not be started.

start()

Redeclares org.osgi.framework.Bundle.stop.

Stop this Framework.

The method returns immediately to the caller after initiating the following steps to be taken on another thread.

1. This Framework's state is set to STOPPING.
2. All installed bundles must be stopped without changing each bundle's persistent autostart setting. The start level of this Framework is moved to start level zero (0), as described in the Start Level Specification. Any exceptions that occur during bundle stopping must be wrapped in a BundleException and then published as a framework event of type FrameworkEvent#ERROR
3. Unregister all services registered by this Framework.
4. Event handling is disabled.
5. This Framework's state is set to RESOLVED.
6. All resources held by this Framework are released. This includes threads, bundle class loaders, open files, etc.
7. Notify all threads that are waiting at waitForStop that the stop operation has completed.

After being stopped, this Framework may be discarded, initialized or started.

Wait until this Framework has completely stopped. The stop and update methods on a Framework performs an asynchronous stop of the Framework. This method can be used to wait until the asynchronous stop of this Framework has completed. This method will only wait if called when this Framework is in the STARTING, ACTIVE, or STOPPING states. Otherwise it will return immediately.

A Framework Event is returned to indicate why this Framework has stopped.

Parameters

timeout:long

Maximum number of milliseconds to wait until this Framework has completely stopped. A value of zero will wait indefinitely.

Returns:FrameworkEvent

A Framework Event indicating the reason this method returned. The following FrameworkEvent types may be returned by this method.

• STOPPED - This Framework has been stopped.
• STOPPED_UPDATE - This Framework has been updated which has shutdown and will now restart.
• STOPPED_SYSTEM_REFRESHED - The Framework has been stopped because of a refresh operation on the system bundle. A new class loader must be used to restart the Framework.
• ERROR - The Framework encountered an error while shutting down or an error has occurred which forced the framework to shutdown.
• WAIT_TIMEDOUT - This method has timed out and returned before this Framework has stopped.

Exceptions

InterruptedException:

If another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for this Framework to completely stop. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.

IllegalArgumentException:

If the value of timeout is negative.
