370 * [FELIX-908] - Unsynchronize access to bundle state inside BundleInfo by making the variable volatile
371
372Changes from 1.4.0 to 1.4.1
373---------------------------
374
375* [2008-12-19] Refactor the URLHandlers implementation to fix a possible
376 Linkage-Error when running embedded inside tomcat. Furthermore, make it possible
377 to dynamically set a SecurityManager, change the url we add to the framework
378 classloader to fix issues with rmi and make sure we restore the previous URLStreamHandlerFactory
379 after stopping. (FELIX-842, FELIX-837, FELIX-844, FELIX-827)
380* [2008-12-19] Add missing javax.security.cert in JRE 1.4 and 1.5. (FELIX-854)
381* [2008-12-19] Improve framework internal locking protocol.
382* [2008-12-18] Fixed an issue where bundles with a non-existing native library
383 would not be removed correctly. (FELIX-835)
384* [2008-11-21] Throw an exception when there is an attempt to start or stop a
385 fragment, as per the spec. (FELIX-820)
386* [2008-11-20] Fixed a bug during shutdown where uninstalled fragments are not
387 properly closed. (FELIX-819)
388* [2008-11-14] Added partial support for new service registry hooks as proposed
389 for OSGi R4.2; currently, only listener hooks are supported. (FELIX-804)
390* [2008-11-08] Fixed Felix' delegation hack so that it correctly delegates to
391 the parent class loader for resources as appropriate; previously it was always
392 delegating for class loading, which was incorrect. (FELIX-808)
393
394Changes from 1.2.2 to 1.4.0
395---------------------------
396
397* [2008-11-05] URLStreamHandlerService and ContentHandlerService override
398 built-in handlers and make it possible to use URLHandlers when extending the
399 Felix class. (FELIX-756, FELIX-800)
400* [2008-11-04] Implement ServiceReference.compareTo() method. (FELIX-799)
401* [2008-10-31] Fix some visibility issues in the LDAP operators which could
402 result in incorrect toString values. (FELIX-765)
403* [2008-10-31] Fixed spec compliance issues around getting a service reference
404 from an invalid registration and throwing an exception when there are
405 duplicate property keys. (FELIX-798)
406* [2008-10-21] Fixed an issue with extension bundles which would be installed
407 as fragments and fail to install extension bundles if they have incomplete
408 metadata. (FELIX-770)
409* [2008-10-21] Fix a possible deadlock in URLHandlers. (FELIX-748)
410* [2008-10-16] Modified framework to have default values for the system
411 packages property, which also required modifying main to no longer expect to
412 set it. Now it is possible to start Felix with no configuration properties.
413 (FELIX-753)
414* [2008-10-16] Update felix to work with the 1.0.0-rc1 version of the android
415 sdk.
416* [2008-10-15] Implemented remaining PackageAdmin methods from R4. (FELIX-35)
417* [2008-10-15] Modified resolver to correctly mark fragment modules as resolved.
418 (FELIX-777)
419* [2008-10-15] Modified the resolver to longer consider uninstalled fragments
420 and hosts when resolving dependencies; this required a new "stale" flag on
421 modules that gets set when their associated bundle is uninstalled. (FELIX-776)
422* [2008-10-15] Modified the resolver to sort candidates when resolving
423 Require-Bundle dependencies. (FELIX-775)
424* [2008-10-14] Modified ExportedPackage.getImportingBundles() to include
425 bundles requiring the exporting bundle, in addition to those bundles
426 importing the package. Also tried to simplify dependency management code
427 by separating it out. (FELIX-764)
428* [2008-10-14] Fix a NullPointerException in SecureAction when a
429 SecurityManager is used by keeping pointers on the local stack. (FELIX-766)
430* [2008-10-13] Use System.gc to allow to update and uninstall bundles with
431 native libs on Windows. (FELIX-733)
432* [2008-10-10] Set the activator to null on Bundle.stop() to allow for earlier
433 garbage collection. (FELIX-762)
434* [2008-10-10] Implements support for flushing the cache on framework
435 initialization. (FELIX-755)
436* [2008-10-10] Improve exception messages. (FELIX-750)
437* [2008-10-09] Modified the bundle cache to no longer have profiles. (FELIX-754)
438* [2008-10-08] Modified the Felix API to aligned with the proposed standard
439 OSGi framework API. The framework instance can now be stopped and restarted.
440 (FELIX-753)
441* [2008-09-29] Support transiently starting/stopping bundles. (FELIX-713)
442* [2008-09-25] Correctly discard exported packages when a bundle is chosen to
443 import a package it exports. (FELIX-736)
444* [2008-09-24] Clearly distinguish between "resolved" and "unresolved"
445 capabilities, which is necessary since "resolved" capabilities have higher
446 priority than "unresolved" ones. (FELIX-730)
447* [2008-09-24] Do not bootdelegate in the case where Bundle.loadClass() has
448 been used. (FELIX-712)
449* [2008-09-23] Improve decoding of reference URLs. (FELIX-731)
450* [2008-09-23] For completeness, added symbolic names to framework and main.
451* [2008-09-17] Improve gc by fixing an issue with StartLevel and PackageAdmin.
452 (FELIX-728)
453* [2008-09-15] Fix an issue with Require-Bundle not aggregating packages
454 correctly. (FELIX-722)
455* [2008-09-15] Fixed a bug where class loader delegation for dynamic imports
456 was happening when it shouldn't. (FELIX-724)
457* [2008-09-12] Added a configuration property to determine whether installing a
458 fragment that uses unimplemented features throws an exception or logs a
459 warning. (FELIX-725)
460* [2008-09-12] Removed some experimental code for "implicit requirements",
461 since it was no longer needed.
462* [2008-09-12] Fix some visibility issues within the LDAP filter. (FELIX-721)
463
464Changes from 1.2.1 to 1.2.2
465---------------------------
466
467* [2008-10-14] Fixed a NullPointer exception that could happen when
468 running with a SecurityManager as a backport of FELIX-766.
469
470Changes from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1
471---------------------------
472
473* [2008-09-05] Fixed a performance regression that was caused by uncached
474 access to the bundle manifest headers. (FELIX-711)
475* [2008-09-03] Fixed a bug in calculating the system bundle's exported
476 packages which added a null export package.
477
478Changes from 1.0.4 to 1.2.0
479---------------------------
480
481* [2008-08-29] Support JAR-wide manifest package metadata. (FELIX-682)
482* [2008-08-29] Throw an exception when installing a fragment that uses
483 features that we do not support.
484* [2008-08-20] Improve error reporting when loading bundle classes using
485 Bundle.loadClass.
486* [2008-08-16] Fix attribute checking when resolving dynamic imports.
487 (FELIX-676)
488* [2008-08-08] Implement singleton bundle support. (FELIX-102)
489* [2008-08-06] Default to current security policy if no security extension is
490 installed in order to make Subject.doAs work. (FELIX-654)
491* [2008-08-04] Return Bundle.getLastModified() for bundle URLs
492 lastModified(). (FELIX-582)
493* [2008-08-04] Improve handling of improper resource URLs. (FELIX-577)
494* [2008-08-01] Add necessary stub methods to implement new R4.1 methods.
495 (FELIX-595)
496* [2008-08-01] Applied patch to properly return symbolic name when it has
497 parameters. (FELIX-650)
498* [2008-07-25] Fix some rollback issues after a bundle update throws an
499 exception. (FELIX-647)
500* [2008-07-23] Modified manifest parser to be more lenient. (FELIX-641)
501* [2008-07-07] Add support for the standard symbolic name for the system
502 bundle. (FELIX-602)
503* [2008-06-01] Add initial fragment support for extending the host bundle
504 class path. (FELIX-29, FELIX-656)
505
506Changes from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4
507___________________________
508
509* [2008-04-18] Check that the returned object from a service factory is an
510 instance of all classes named when the service was registered. (FELIX-540)
511* [2008-04-13] Fix an issue when logging messages while holding framework
512 internal locks that could lead to a deadlock. For now we just disable
513 logging to log services inside the framework. (FELIX-536)
514* [2008-04-13] Implemented various small performance improvments e.g.,
515 we now cache filters and create an index for objectclass to improve
516 service lookup performance and don't use the BundleInfo to get the
517 bundle id but the BundleImpl directly. Furthermore, we added an index to
518 get bundles by id.
519* [2008-04-04] Fix an NoClassDefFoundError when trying to query the
520 framework classloader for whether a class is available or not.
521* [2008-03-19] Don't try to resolve extension bundles and fix a
522 classcastexception that could happen if more then one framework is around
523 and both have extensions installed. Furthermore, make extension bundles
524 use the system bundle context.
525* [2008-03-07] Bundle.getResource does now check for AdminPermission.
526 (FELIX-150)
527* [2008-03-06] Make urlhandlers work when a handler factory is already set.
528 Furthermore, it is now possible to have more then one framework running
529 in more then one classloader. (FELIX-38).
530* [2008-03-05] Make LDAP filter reentrant.
531* [2008-02-29] Refactored the IContent abstraction from the module loader
532 layer to provide more generic access to the content of the module. This
533 makes it possible that a bundle's class path could span multiple module's,
534 which will be necessary for fragments. (FELIX-29)
535* [2008-02-27] Applied a patch to disable the class loading diagnostic message
536 when the logger is not at the DEBUG level. (FELIX-500)
537* [2008-02-15] Modified the service registry to use more fine-grained locking
538 to avoid callbacks to service factories while holding locks. (FELIX-489)
539
540Changes from 1.0.1 to 1.0.3
541---------------------------
542
543* [2008-01-27] Moved framework docs to main, since the launcher examples now
544 depend on main for the auto-property handling.
545* [2008-01-25] Applied patches to improve how Felix finds resources when
546 getResources() is called. (FELIX-466, FELIX-467)
547* [2008-01-25] Make FilterImpl.toString() add escape characters where needed.
548 (FELIX-471)
549* [2008-01-16] Fix a NPE on framework restart when extension bundles are
550 installed.
551* [2008-01-15] Try to fix a potential visibility issue on loading a class
552 form a bundle where it seems to be possible that we create two classloaders
553 instead of one.
554* [2008-01-15] Modified boot delegation to not terminate when delegating to
555 parent class loader for non-java.* packages. (FELIX-463)
556* [2008-01-04] Fix some issues related to directories on the bundle class
557 path. Specifically, leading slashes created an issue and are now stripped
558 and entries were not being properly filtered when enumerating the contents
559 of a class path directory. (FELIX-426)
560* [2007-12-20] Modified logger to have all of its public methods be final to
561 avoid it from being extended in undesired ways via the constructor supplied
562 logger. (FELIX-428)
563* [2007-12-20] The TCK has changed to verify that bundles do not depend on
564 themselves, so we filter that case now.
565* [2007-12-20] Applied patch from Guillaume Nodet to properly fire a framework
566 error event only when a bundle cannot be resolved. (FELIX-441)
567* [2007-12-19] Modified framework to accept a Logger instance so that host
568 applications can do custom logging until the log service arrives. (FELIX-428)
569* [2007-12-19] Add support for loading bundles on Google Android (FELIX-440).
570* [2007-12-18] Improve native code loading - bundle installation will now
571 fail in case a native library is not in the jar and we only use the first
572 library of a given name. Furthermore, we now support .dylib extensions on
573 the mac as well as others; should make it possible to use .netmodules as
574 well. (FELIX-439)
575* [2007-12-17] Make the win32 alias match any version of windows for native
576 clauses. (FELIX-438)
577* [2007-12-14] Removed auto-property processing out of the framework and
578 into the default launcher, i.e, main. (FELIX-393)
579* [2007-12-13] Fix a StackOverflowError in URLHandlers.createStreamHandler()
580 when creating URL on jamvm and Mika. This patch resolves an unfortunate
581 interaction between our ExtensionManager and the URLHandlers by making the
582 URLHandlers aware of the extension protocol. Pretty much like we do already
583 for the bundle protocol. (FELIX-435)
584* [2007-11-26] Fix a small oversight in the extension manager that could lead
585 to a null pointer exception and save some memory by creating less objects.
586* [2007-11-26] Degrate to version 0.0.0 if we can not find the Felix.properties
587 for some reason and avoid a null pointer in this case.
588* [2007-11-08] Reorganized usage count methods to better handle null
589 reference checking in response to Karl Pauls seeing an NPE when trying to
590 get a service that was already unregistered while shutting down the
591 framework.
592* [2007-11-06] Added a simple check to detect and work around a bug in J9.
593 (FELIX-416)
594* [2007-10-30] Change how the extension manager url stream handler handles
595 request to the root path in order to make some tomcat issue go away.
596 (FELIX-414)
597* [2007-10-26] Added support for "/" bundle resources as requested. (FELIX-383)
598* [2007-10-24] Use system bundle when firing a framework error event when an
599 install error occurs.
600* [2007-10-22] Fix a NPE when getEntryPaths is called on the system bundle.
601 (FELIX-394)
602* [2007-10-16] Modifies bundle resource URL handling such that if a resource
603 URL points to a resource that does not exist, a bundle class path search
604 for the resource will be instigated and if any matching resource is found,
605 that one will be used instead. (FELIX-383)
606* [2007-10-10] Auto-property handling now installs bundles into the default
607 bundle start level if a start level is not specified. (FELIX-359)
608* [2007-10-08] Overwrite the URLStreamHandler.getHostAddress(URL) in the
609 ExtensionManager to immediately return null to prevent DNS lookup.
610 (FELIX-388)
611* [2007-09-30] Resolved a concurrency issue that could result in the same
612 bundle being resolved more than once; also tried to simplify locking in
613 the core search policy implementation. (FELIX-381)
614
615Changes from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1
616---------------------------
617
618* [2007-07-23] Fixed a bug in the framework shutdown process which was
619 causing threads calling Felix.stopAndWait() to not get notified that
620 the framework had shutdown. (FELIX-329)
621* [2007-08-15] Fixed a bug in the LDAP filter which was not thread safe
622 on execution. (FELIX-338)
623* [2007-08-17] Added support for persistent last used bundle ID to avoid
624 re-use of bundle identifiers. (FELIX-339)
625* [2007-08-23] Modified BundleImpl.getHeaders(Locale) to accept a null
626 locale. (FELIX-346)
627* [2007-09-11] Added support to handle external termination of Felix
628 which was not handled or detected and prevented a restart of future
629 Felix instances in the same VM. (FELIX-363)
630* [2007-09-12] Add support for Collection values in the LDAP filter to
631 match the 4.1 spec.
632* [2007-09-12] Fixed a bug in the LDAP filter where attributes where
633 limited to [a-zA-Z ] so didn't allow for e.g., numbers. (FELIX-361)
634* [2007-09-13] Enable support for exporting the same package more than
635 once (FELIX-101).
636* [2007-09-13] Returns the system bundle from a call to
637 PackageAdmin.getBundle(Class) in case the class comes from the
638 classloader (or one of its parents) that loaded Felix and the system
639 bundle exports the package.
640* [2007-09-16] Fixed a bug in class space filtering in the service registry
641 that could result in class cast exceptions for service clients.
642* [2007-09-16] Fixed a bug that prevented extension bundle exports to be
643 usable.
644
645Changes from 0.8.0-incubator to 1.0.0
646-------------------------------------
647
648* [2007-01-18] Added support for bundle header localization. (FELIX-27)
649* [2007-01-22] Modified framework resolver to support a generic
650 capability/requirement model.
651* [2007-01-22] Reorganized and centralized manifest parsing code and added
652 support for resolver's generic capability/requirement model. (FELIX-98)
653* [2007-01-22] Improved native library naming normalization. (FELIX-26)
654* [2007-01-23] No longer eagerly resolving classes loaded from modules
655 since this was causing verification errors with IBM J9.
656* [2007-01-25] Added some support for execution environment checking.
657 (FELIX-23)
658* [2007-01-29] Added support for getAllServiceReferences(). (FELIX-32)
659* [2007-01-31] Added Require-Bundle support to resolve using the generic
660 capability/requirement model of the resolver. (FELIX-28)
661* [2007-02-05] Fixed a bug in processor type normalization for x86-64
662 processors.
663* [2007-02-09] The resolver previously ignored packages that were pending
664 removal when resolving new bundles, now it does not.
665* [2007-02-09] Bundles are automatically refreshed when updated/uninstalled
666 if none of their exported packages are in use.
667* [2007-02-13] Added support for extension bundles. (FELIX-30)
668* [2007-03-02] Added a Bundle.getBundleContext() method until actual
669 support for OSGi R4.1.
670* [2007-04-26] Modified Bundle.findEntries() to return URLs to directory
671 entries as well as file entries.
672* [2007-05-06] Modified LDAP evaluator to special case the fact that

679 prepend information to the resource path.
680* [2007-06-13] Improved dynamic imports to cycle through all available
681 candidates when checking for class space consistency.
682* [2007-06-18] Improved service registry filtering based on class versions
683 to allow a bundle to register a service for a different version of class
684 that it can access.
685* [2007-06-21] Modified our "last ditch effort" to guess when to delegate
686 to the system bundle to make it a little more robust.
687* [2007-06-29] Fixed a bug in EventDispatcher that was causing asynchronous
688 events to not be fired after stopping the framework instance and creating
689 a new instance. (FELIX-314)
690* [2007-07-03] Fixed a bug in EventDispatcher that would not correctly
691 update a listener when it implemented multiple listener interfaces.
692* [2007-07-04] Modified Felix framework class to implement the Bundle
693 interface to improve the startup/shutdown sequence and to provide a
694 simplified API for creating framework instances.
695* [2007-07-11] Removed the PropertyResolver-related classes and now only
696 use Maps for configuration properties. (FELIX-324)
