358* [2008-11-21] Throw an exception when there is an attempt to start or stop a
359 fragment, as per the spec. (FELIX-820)
360* [2008-11-20] Fixed a bug during shutdown where uninstalled fragments are not
361 properly closed. (FELIX-819)
362* [2008-11-14] Added partial support for new service registry hooks as proposed
363 for OSGi R4.2; currently, only listener hooks are supported. (FELIX-804)
364* [2008-11-08] Fixed Felix' delegation hack so that it correctly delegates to
365 the parent class loader for resources as appropriate; previously it was always
366 delegating for class loading, which was incorrect. (FELIX-808)
367
Karl Pauls89beb9b2008-11-06 16:17:00 +0000368Changes from 1.2.2 to 1.4.0
369---------------------------
Karl Pauls1be3b032008-12-20 16:27:49 +0000370
Karl Pauls89beb9b2008-11-06 16:17:00 +0000371* [2008-11-05] URLStreamHandlerService and ContentHandlerService override
372 built-in handlers and make it possible to use URLHandlers when extending the
373 Felix class. (FELIX-756, FELIX-800)
374* [2008-11-04] Implement ServiceReference.compareTo() method. (FELIX-799)
375* [2008-10-31] Fix some visibility issues in the LDAP operators which could
376 result in incorrect toString values. (FELIX-765)
377* [2008-10-31] Fixed spec compliance issues around getting a service reference
378 from an invalid registration and throwing an exception when there are
379 duplicate property keys. (FELIX-798)
380* [2008-10-21] Fixed an issue with extension bundles which would be installed
381 as fragments and fail to install extension bundles if they have incomplete
382 metadata. (FELIX-770)
383* [2008-10-21] Fix a possible deadlock in URLHandlers. (FELIX-748)
384* [2008-10-16] Modified framework to have default values for the system
385 packages property, which also required modifying main to no longer expect to
386 set it. Now it is possible to start Felix with no configuration properties.
387 (FELIX-753)
388* [2008-10-16] Update felix to work with the 1.0.0-rc1 version of the android
389 sdk.
390* [2008-10-15] Implemented remaining PackageAdmin methods from R4. (FELIX-35)
391* [2008-10-15] Modified resolver to correctly mark fragment modules as resolved.
392 (FELIX-777)
393* [2008-10-15] Modified the resolver to longer consider uninstalled fragments
394 and hosts when resolving dependencies; this required a new "stale" flag on
395 modules that gets set when their associated bundle is uninstalled. (FELIX-776)
396* [2008-10-15] Modified the resolver to sort candidates when resolving
397 Require-Bundle dependencies. (FELIX-775)
398* [2008-10-14] Modified ExportedPackage.getImportingBundles() to include
399 bundles requiring the exporting bundle, in addition to those bundles
400 importing the package. Also tried to simplify dependency management code
401 by separating it out. (FELIX-764)
402* [2008-10-14] Fix a NullPointerException in SecureAction when a
403 SecurityManager is used by keeping pointers on the local stack. (FELIX-766)
404* [2008-10-13] Use System.gc to allow to update and uninstall bundles with
405 native libs on Windows. (FELIX-733)
406* [2008-10-10] Set the activator to null on Bundle.stop() to allow for earlier
407 garbage collection. (FELIX-762)
408* [2008-10-10] Implements support for flushing the cache on framework
409 initialization. (FELIX-755)
410* [2008-10-10] Improve exception messages. (FELIX-750)
411* [2008-10-09] Modified the bundle cache to no longer have profiles. (FELIX-754)
412* [2008-10-08] Modified the Felix API to aligned with the proposed standard
413 OSGi framework API. The framework instance can now be stopped and restarted.
414 (FELIX-753)
415* [2008-09-29] Support transiently starting/stopping bundles. (FELIX-713)
416* [2008-09-25] Correctly discard exported packages when a bundle is chosen to
417 import a package it exports. (FELIX-736)
418* [2008-09-24] Clearly distinguish between "resolved" and "unresolved"
419 capabilities, which is necessary since "resolved" capabilities have higher
420 priority than "unresolved" ones. (FELIX-730)
421* [2008-09-24] Do not bootdelegate in the case where Bundle.loadClass() has
422 been used. (FELIX-712)
423* [2008-09-23] Improve decoding of reference URLs. (FELIX-731)
424* [2008-09-23] For completeness, added symbolic names to framework and main.
425* [2008-09-17] Improve gc by fixing an issue with StartLevel and PackageAdmin.
426 (FELIX-728)
427* [2008-09-15] Fix an issue with Require-Bundle not aggregating packages
428 correctly. (FELIX-722)
429* [2008-09-15] Fixed a bug where class loader delegation for dynamic imports
430 was happening when it shouldn't. (FELIX-724)
431* [2008-09-12] Added a configuration property to determine whether installing a
432 fragment that uses unimplemented features throws an exception or logs a
433 warning. (FELIX-725)
434* [2008-09-12] Removed some experimental code for "implicit requirements",
435 since it was no longer needed.
436* [2008-09-12] Fix some visibility issues within the LDAP filter. (FELIX-721)
437
438Changes from 1.2.1 to 1.2.2
439---------------------------
Karl Pauls1be3b032008-12-20 16:27:49 +0000440
Karl Pauls89beb9b2008-11-06 16:17:00 +0000441* [2008-10-14] Fixed a NullPointer exception that could happen when
442 running with a SecurityManager as a backport of FELIX-766.
443
Karl Paulsfa99d5e2008-09-07 19:54:09 +0000444Changes from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1
445---------------------------
446
447* [2008-09-05] Fixed a performance regression that was caused by uncached
448 access to the bundle manifest headers. (FELIX-711)
449* [2008-09-03] Fixed a bug in calculating the system bundle's exported
450 packages which added a null export package.
451
Karl Pauls30d88e12008-08-31 22:15:39 +0000452Changes from 1.0.4 to 1.2.0
453---------------------------
454
455* [2008-08-29] Support JAR-wide manifest package metadata. (FELIX-682)
456* [2008-08-29] Throw an exception when installing a fragment that uses
457 features that we do not support.
458* [2008-08-20] Improve error reporting when loading bundle classes using
459 Bundle.loadClass.
460* [2008-08-16] Fix attribute checking when resolving dynamic imports.
461 (FELIX-676)
462* [2008-08-08] Implement singleton bundle support. (FELIX-102)
463* [2008-08-06] Default to current security policy if no security extension is
464 installed in order to make Subject.doAs work. (FELIX-654)
465* [2008-08-04] Return Bundle.getLastModified() for bundle URLs
466 lastModified(). (FELIX-582)
467* [2008-08-04] Improve handling of improper resource URLs. (FELIX-577)
468* [2008-08-01] Add necessary stub methods to implement new R4.1 methods.
469 (FELIX-595)
470* [2008-08-01] Applied patch to properly return symbolic name when it has
471 parameters. (FELIX-650)
472* [2008-07-25] Fix some rollback issues after a bundle update throws an
473 exception. (FELIX-647)
474* [2008-07-23] Modified manifest parser to be more lenient. (FELIX-641)
475* [2008-07-07] Add support for the standard symbolic name for the system
476 bundle. (FELIX-602)
477* [2008-06-01] Add initial fragment support for extending the host bundle
478 class path. (FELIX-29, FELIX-656)
479
Karl Paulsecf4cc82008-04-21 23:32:57 +0000480Changes from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4
481___________________________
482
483* [2008-04-18] Check that the returned object from a service factory is an
484 instance of all classes named when the service was registered. (FELIX-540)
485* [2008-04-13] Fix an issue when logging messages while holding framework
486 internal locks that could lead to a deadlock. For now we just disable
487 logging to log services inside the framework. (FELIX-536)
488* [2008-04-13] Implemented various small performance improvments e.g.,
489 we now cache filters and create an index for objectclass to improve
490 service lookup performance and don't use the BundleInfo to get the
491 bundle id but the BundleImpl directly. Furthermore, we added an index to
492 get bundles by id.
493* [2008-04-04] Fix an NoClassDefFoundError when trying to query the
494 framework classloader for whether a class is available or not.
495* [2008-03-19] Don't try to resolve extension bundles and fix a
496 classcastexception that could happen if more then one framework is around
497 and both have extensions installed. Furthermore, make extension bundles
498 use the system bundle context.
499* [2008-03-07] Bundle.getResource does now check for AdminPermission.
500 (FELIX-150)
501* [2008-03-06] Make urlhandlers work when a handler factory is already set.
502 Furthermore, it is now possible to have more then one framework running
503 in more then one classloader. (FELIX-38).
504* [2008-03-05] Make LDAP filter reentrant.
505* [2008-02-29] Refactored the IContent abstraction from the module loader
506 layer to provide more generic access to the content of the module. This
507 makes it possible that a bundle's class path could span multiple module's,
508 which will be necessary for fragments. (FELIX-29)
509* [2008-02-27] Applied a patch to disable the class loading diagnostic message
510 when the logger is not at the DEBUG level. (FELIX-500)
511* [2008-02-15] Modified the service registry to use more fine-grained locking
512 to avoid callbacks to service factories while holding locks. (FELIX-489)
513
Karl Pauls7db0d882008-01-28 09:37:24 +0000514Changes from 1.0.1 to 1.0.3
Karl Paulsc0335862008-01-27 19:49:56 +0000515---------------------------
516
517* [2008-01-27] Moved framework docs to main, since the launcher examples now
518 depend on main for the auto-property handling.
519* [2008-01-25] Applied patches to improve how Felix finds resources when
520 getResources() is called. (FELIX-466, FELIX-467)
521* [2008-01-25] Make FilterImpl.toString() add escape characters where needed.
522 (FELIX-471)
523* [2008-01-16] Fix a NPE on framework restart when extension bundles are
524 installed.
525* [2008-01-15] Try to fix a potential visibility issue on loading a class
526 form a bundle where it seems to be possible that we create two classloaders
527 instead of one.
528* [2008-01-15] Modified boot delegation to not terminate when delegating to
529 parent class loader for non-java.* packages. (FELIX-463)
530* [2008-01-04] Fix some issues related to directories on the bundle class
531 path. Specifically, leading slashes created an issue and are now stripped
532 and entries were not being properly filtered when enumerating the contents
533 of a class path directory. (FELIX-426)
534* [2007-12-20] Modified logger to have all of its public methods be final to
535 avoid it from being extended in undesired ways via the constructor supplied
536 logger. (FELIX-428)
537* [2007-12-20] The TCK has changed to verify that bundles do not depend on
538 themselves, so we filter that case now.
539* [2007-12-20] Applied patch from Guillaume Nodet to properly fire a framework
540 error event only when a bundle cannot be resolved. (FELIX-441)
541* [2007-12-19] Modified framework to accept a Logger instance so that host
542 applications can do custom logging until the log service arrives. (FELIX-428)
543* [2007-12-19] Add support for loading bundles on Google Android (FELIX-440).
544* [2007-12-18] Improve native code loading - bundle installation will now
545 fail in case a native library is not in the jar and we only use the first
546 library of a given name. Furthermore, we now support .dylib extensions on
547 the mac as well as others; should make it possible to use .netmodules as
548 well. (FELIX-439)
549* [2007-12-17] Make the win32 alias match any version of windows for native
550 clauses. (FELIX-438)
551* [2007-12-14] Removed auto-property processing out of the framework and
552 into the default launcher, i.e, main. (FELIX-393)
553* [2007-12-13] Fix a StackOverflowError in URLHandlers.createStreamHandler()
554 when creating URL on jamvm and Mika. This patch resolves an unfortunate
555 interaction between our ExtensionManager and the URLHandlers by making the
556 URLHandlers aware of the extension protocol. Pretty much like we do already
557 for the bundle protocol. (FELIX-435)
558* [2007-11-26] Fix a small oversight in the extension manager that could lead
559 to a null pointer exception and save some memory by creating less objects.
560* [2007-11-26] Degrate to version 0.0.0 if we can not find the Felix.properties
561 for some reason and avoid a null pointer in this case.
562* [2007-11-08] Reorganized usage count methods to better handle null
563 reference checking in response to Karl Pauls seeing an NPE when trying to
564 get a service that was already unregistered while shutting down the
565 framework.
566* [2007-11-06] Added a simple check to detect and work around a bug in J9.
567 (FELIX-416)
568* [2007-10-30] Change how the extension manager url stream handler handles
569 request to the root path in order to make some tomcat issue go away.
570 (FELIX-414)
571* [2007-10-26] Added support for "/" bundle resources as requested. (FELIX-383)
572* [2007-10-24] Use system bundle when firing a framework error event when an
573 install error occurs.
574* [2007-10-22] Fix a NPE when getEntryPaths is called on the system bundle.
575 (FELIX-394)
576* [2007-10-16] Modifies bundle resource URL handling such that if a resource
577 URL points to a resource that does not exist, a bundle class path search
578 for the resource will be instigated and if any matching resource is found,
579 that one will be used instead. (FELIX-383)
580* [2007-10-10] Auto-property handling now installs bundles into the default
581 bundle start level if a start level is not specified. (FELIX-359)
582* [2007-10-08] Overwrite the URLStreamHandler.getHostAddress(URL) in the
583 ExtensionManager to immediately return null to prevent DNS lookup.
584 (FELIX-388)
585* [2007-09-30] Resolved a concurrency issue that could result in the same
586 bundle being resolved more than once; also tried to simplify locking in
587 the core search policy implementation. (FELIX-381)
588
Karl Pauls305c9642007-09-16 20:46:04 +0000589Changes from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1
590---------------------------
591
592* [2007-07-23] Fixed a bug in the framework shutdown process which was
593 causing threads calling Felix.stopAndWait() to not get notified that
594 the framework had shutdown. (FELIX-329)
595* [2007-08-15] Fixed a bug in the LDAP filter which was not thread safe
596 on execution. (FELIX-338)
597* [2007-08-17] Added support for persistent last used bundle ID to avoid
598 re-use of bundle identifiers. (FELIX-339)
599* [2007-08-23] Modified BundleImpl.getHeaders(Locale) to accept a null
600 locale. (FELIX-346)
601* [2007-09-11] Added support to handle external termination of Felix
602 which was not handled or detected and prevented a restart of future
603 Felix instances in the same VM. (FELIX-363)
604* [2007-09-12] Add support for Collection values in the LDAP filter to
605 match the 4.1 spec.
606* [2007-09-12] Fixed a bug in the LDAP filter where attributes where
607 limited to [a-zA-Z ] so didn't allow for e.g., numbers. (FELIX-361)
608* [2007-09-13] Enable support for exporting the same package more than
609 once (FELIX-101).
610* [2007-09-13] Returns the system bundle from a call to
611 PackageAdmin.getBundle(Class) in case the class comes from the
612 classloader (or one of its parents) that loaded Felix and the system
613 bundle exports the package.
614* [2007-09-16] Fixed a bug in class space filtering in the service registry
615 that could result in class cast exceptions for service clients.
616* [2007-09-16] Fixed a bug that prevented extension bundle exports to be
617 usable.
618
Richard S. Hall2cd5bed2007-07-16 20:32:41 +0000619Changes from 0.8.0-incubator to 1.0.0

626 support for resolver's generic capability/requirement model. (FELIX-98)
627* [2007-01-22] Improved native library naming normalization. (FELIX-26)
628* [2007-01-23] No longer eagerly resolving classes loaded from modules
629 since this was causing verification errors with IBM J9.
630* [2007-01-25] Added some support for execution environment checking.
631 (FELIX-23)
632* [2007-01-29] Added support for getAllServiceReferences(). (FELIX-32)
633* [2007-01-31] Added Require-Bundle support to resolve using the generic
634 capability/requirement model of the resolver. (FELIX-28)
635* [2007-02-05] Fixed a bug in processor type normalization for x86-64
636 processors.
637* [2007-02-09] The resolver previously ignored packages that were pending
638 removal when resolving new bundles, now it does not.
639* [2007-02-09] Bundles are automatically refreshed when updated/uninstalled
640 if none of their exported packages are in use.
641* [2007-02-13] Added support for extension bundles. (FELIX-30)
642* [2007-03-02] Added a Bundle.getBundleContext() method until actual
643 support for OSGi R4.1.
644* [2007-04-26] Modified Bundle.findEntries() to return URLs to directory

653 prepend information to the resource path.
654* [2007-06-13] Improved dynamic imports to cycle through all available
655 candidates when checking for class space consistency.
656* [2007-06-18] Improved service registry filtering based on class versions
657 to allow a bundle to register a service for a different version of class
658 that it can access.
659* [2007-06-21] Modified our "last ditch effort" to guess when to delegate
660 to the system bundle to make it a little more robust.
661* [2007-06-29] Fixed a bug in EventDispatcher that was causing asynchronous
662 events to not be fired after stopping the framework instance and creating
663 a new instance. (FELIX-314)

665 update a listener when it implemented multiple listener interfaces.
666* [2007-07-04] Modified Felix framework class to implement the Bundle
667 interface to improve the startup/shutdown sequence and to provide a
668 simplified API for creating framework instances.
669* [2007-07-11] Removed the PropertyResolver-related classes and now only
670 use Maps for configuration properties. (FELIX-324)
