462---------------------------
463
464* [2008-12-19] Refactor the URLHandlers implementation to fix a possible
465 Linkage-Error when running embedded inside tomcat. Furthermore, make it possible
466 to dynamically set a SecurityManager, change the url we add to the framework
467 classloader to fix issues with rmi and make sure we restore the previous URLStreamHandlerFactory
468 after stopping. (FELIX-842, FELIX-837, FELIX-844, FELIX-827)
469* [2008-12-19] Add missing javax.security.cert in JRE 1.4 and 1.5. (FELIX-854)
470* [2008-12-19] Improve framework internal locking protocol.
471* [2008-12-18] Fixed an issue where bundles with a non-existing native library
472 would not be removed correctly. (FELIX-835)
473* [2008-11-21] Throw an exception when there is an attempt to start or stop a
474 fragment, as per the spec. (FELIX-820)
475* [2008-11-20] Fixed a bug during shutdown where uninstalled fragments are not
476 properly closed. (FELIX-819)
477* [2008-11-14] Added partial support for new service registry hooks as proposed
478 for OSGi R4.2; currently, only listener hooks are supported. (FELIX-804)
479* [2008-11-08] Fixed Felix' delegation hack so that it correctly delegates to
480 the parent class loader for resources as appropriate; previously it was always
481 delegating for class loading, which was incorrect. (FELIX-808)
482
Karl Paulsc4c541d2008-11-06 16:17:00 +0000483Changes from 1.2.2 to 1.4.0
484---------------------------
Karl Paulsce873782008-12-20 16:27:49 +0000485
Karl Paulsc4c541d2008-11-06 16:17:00 +0000486* [2008-11-05] URLStreamHandlerService and ContentHandlerService override
487 built-in handlers and make it possible to use URLHandlers when extending the
488 Felix class. (FELIX-756, FELIX-800)
489* [2008-11-04] Implement ServiceReference.compareTo() method. (FELIX-799)
490* [2008-10-31] Fix some visibility issues in the LDAP operators which could
491 result in incorrect toString values. (FELIX-765)
492* [2008-10-31] Fixed spec compliance issues around getting a service reference
493 from an invalid registration and throwing an exception when there are
494 duplicate property keys. (FELIX-798)
495* [2008-10-21] Fixed an issue with extension bundles which would be installed
496 as fragments and fail to install extension bundles if they have incomplete
497 metadata. (FELIX-770)
498* [2008-10-21] Fix a possible deadlock in URLHandlers. (FELIX-748)
499* [2008-10-16] Modified framework to have default values for the system
500 packages property, which also required modifying main to no longer expect to
501 set it. Now it is possible to start Felix with no configuration properties.
502 (FELIX-753)
503* [2008-10-16] Update felix to work with the 1.0.0-rc1 version of the android
504 sdk.
505* [2008-10-15] Implemented remaining PackageAdmin methods from R4. (FELIX-35)
506* [2008-10-15] Modified resolver to correctly mark fragment modules as resolved.
507 (FELIX-777)
508* [2008-10-15] Modified the resolver to longer consider uninstalled fragments
509 and hosts when resolving dependencies; this required a new "stale" flag on
510 modules that gets set when their associated bundle is uninstalled. (FELIX-776)
511* [2008-10-15] Modified the resolver to sort candidates when resolving
512 Require-Bundle dependencies. (FELIX-775)
513* [2008-10-14] Modified ExportedPackage.getImportingBundles() to include
514 bundles requiring the exporting bundle, in addition to those bundles
515 importing the package. Also tried to simplify dependency management code
516 by separating it out. (FELIX-764)
517* [2008-10-14] Fix a NullPointerException in SecureAction when a
518 SecurityManager is used by keeping pointers on the local stack. (FELIX-766)
519* [2008-10-13] Use System.gc to allow to update and uninstall bundles with
520 native libs on Windows. (FELIX-733)
521* [2008-10-10] Set the activator to null on Bundle.stop() to allow for earlier
522 garbage collection. (FELIX-762)
523* [2008-10-10] Implements support for flushing the cache on framework
524 initialization. (FELIX-755)
525* [2008-10-10] Improve exception messages. (FELIX-750)
526* [2008-10-09] Modified the bundle cache to no longer have profiles. (FELIX-754)
527* [2008-10-08] Modified the Felix API to aligned with the proposed standard
528 OSGi framework API. The framework instance can now be stopped and restarted.
529 (FELIX-753)
530* [2008-09-29] Support transiently starting/stopping bundles. (FELIX-713)
531* [2008-09-25] Correctly discard exported packages when a bundle is chosen to
532 import a package it exports. (FELIX-736)
533* [2008-09-24] Clearly distinguish between "resolved" and "unresolved"
534 capabilities, which is necessary since "resolved" capabilities have higher
535 priority than "unresolved" ones. (FELIX-730)
536* [2008-09-24] Do not bootdelegate in the case where Bundle.loadClass() has
537 been used. (FELIX-712)
538* [2008-09-23] Improve decoding of reference URLs. (FELIX-731)
539* [2008-09-23] For completeness, added symbolic names to framework and main.
540* [2008-09-17] Improve gc by fixing an issue with StartLevel and PackageAdmin.
541 (FELIX-728)
542* [2008-09-15] Fix an issue with Require-Bundle not aggregating packages
543 correctly. (FELIX-722)
544* [2008-09-15] Fixed a bug where class loader delegation for dynamic imports
545 was happening when it shouldn't. (FELIX-724)
546* [2008-09-12] Added a configuration property to determine whether installing a
547 fragment that uses unimplemented features throws an exception or logs a
548 warning. (FELIX-725)
549* [2008-09-12] Removed some experimental code for "implicit requirements",
550 since it was no longer needed.
551* [2008-09-12] Fix some visibility issues within the LDAP filter. (FELIX-721)
552
553Changes from 1.2.1 to 1.2.2

Karl Paulsc4c541d2008-11-06 16:17:00 +0000556* [2008-10-14] Fixed a NullPointer exception that could happen when
557 running with a SecurityManager as a backport of FELIX-766.
558
Karl Paulse212d9b2008-09-07 19:54:09 +0000559Changes from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1
560---------------------------
561
562* [2008-09-05] Fixed a performance regression that was caused by uncached
563 access to the bundle manifest headers. (FELIX-711)
564* [2008-09-03] Fixed a bug in calculating the system bundle's exported
565 packages which added a null export package.
566
Karl Pauls78ba3242008-08-31 22:15:39 +0000567Changes from 1.0.4 to 1.2.0
568---------------------------
569
570* [2008-08-29] Support JAR-wide manifest package metadata. (FELIX-682)
571* [2008-08-29] Throw an exception when installing a fragment that uses
572 features that we do not support.
573* [2008-08-20] Improve error reporting when loading bundle classes using
574 Bundle.loadClass.
575* [2008-08-16] Fix attribute checking when resolving dynamic imports.
576 (FELIX-676)
577* [2008-08-08] Implement singleton bundle support. (FELIX-102)
578* [2008-08-06] Default to current security policy if no security extension is
579 installed in order to make Subject.doAs work. (FELIX-654)
580* [2008-08-04] Return Bundle.getLastModified() for bundle URLs
581 lastModified(). (FELIX-582)
582* [2008-08-04] Improve handling of improper resource URLs. (FELIX-577)
583* [2008-08-01] Add necessary stub methods to implement new R4.1 methods.
584 (FELIX-595)
585* [2008-08-01] Applied patch to properly return symbolic name when it has
586 parameters. (FELIX-650)
587* [2008-07-25] Fix some rollback issues after a bundle update throws an
588 exception. (FELIX-647)
589* [2008-07-23] Modified manifest parser to be more lenient. (FELIX-641)
590* [2008-07-07] Add support for the standard symbolic name for the system
591 bundle. (FELIX-602)
592* [2008-06-01] Add initial fragment support for extending the host bundle
593 class path. (FELIX-29, FELIX-656)
594
Karl Pauls0eba9182008-04-21 23:32:57 +0000595Changes from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4
596___________________________
597
598* [2008-04-18] Check that the returned object from a service factory is an
599 instance of all classes named when the service was registered. (FELIX-540)
600* [2008-04-13] Fix an issue when logging messages while holding framework
601 internal locks that could lead to a deadlock. For now we just disable
602 logging to log services inside the framework. (FELIX-536)
603* [2008-04-13] Implemented various small performance improvments e.g.,
604 we now cache filters and create an index for objectclass to improve
605 service lookup performance and don't use the BundleInfo to get the
606 bundle id but the BundleImpl directly. Furthermore, we added an index to
607 get bundles by id.
608* [2008-04-04] Fix an NoClassDefFoundError when trying to query the
609 framework classloader for whether a class is available or not.
610* [2008-03-19] Don't try to resolve extension bundles and fix a
611 classcastexception that could happen if more then one framework is around
612 and both have extensions installed. Furthermore, make extension bundles
613 use the system bundle context.
614* [2008-03-07] Bundle.getResource does now check for AdminPermission.
615 (FELIX-150)
616* [2008-03-06] Make urlhandlers work when a handler factory is already set.
617 Furthermore, it is now possible to have more then one framework running
618 in more then one classloader. (FELIX-38).
619* [2008-03-05] Make LDAP filter reentrant.
620* [2008-02-29] Refactored the IContent abstraction from the module loader
621 layer to provide more generic access to the content of the module. This
622 makes it possible that a bundle's class path could span multiple module's,
623 which will be necessary for fragments. (FELIX-29)
624* [2008-02-27] Applied a patch to disable the class loading diagnostic message
625 when the logger is not at the DEBUG level. (FELIX-500)
626* [2008-02-15] Modified the service registry to use more fine-grained locking
627 to avoid callbacks to service factories while holding locks. (FELIX-489)
628
Karl Pauls7db0d882008-01-28 09:37:24 +0000629Changes from 1.0.1 to 1.0.3
Karl Paulsc0335862008-01-27 19:49:56 +0000630---------------------------
631
632* [2008-01-27] Moved framework docs to main, since the launcher examples now
633 depend on main for the auto-property handling.
634* [2008-01-25] Applied patches to improve how Felix finds resources when
635 getResources() is called. (FELIX-466, FELIX-467)
636* [2008-01-25] Make FilterImpl.toString() add escape characters where needed.
637 (FELIX-471)
638* [2008-01-16] Fix a NPE on framework restart when extension bundles are
639 installed.
640* [2008-01-15] Try to fix a potential visibility issue on loading a class
641 form a bundle where it seems to be possible that we create two classloaders
642 instead of one.
643* [2008-01-15] Modified boot delegation to not terminate when delegating to
644 parent class loader for non-java.* packages. (FELIX-463)
645* [2008-01-04] Fix some issues related to directories on the bundle class
646 path. Specifically, leading slashes created an issue and are now stripped
647 and entries were not being properly filtered when enumerating the contents
648 of a class path directory. (FELIX-426)
649* [2007-12-20] Modified logger to have all of its public methods be final to
650 avoid it from being extended in undesired ways via the constructor supplied
651 logger. (FELIX-428)
652* [2007-12-20] The TCK has changed to verify that bundles do not depend on
653 themselves, so we filter that case now.
654* [2007-12-20] Applied patch from Guillaume Nodet to properly fire a framework
655 error event only when a bundle cannot be resolved. (FELIX-441)
656* [2007-12-19] Modified framework to accept a Logger instance so that host
657 applications can do custom logging until the log service arrives. (FELIX-428)
658* [2007-12-19] Add support for loading bundles on Google Android (FELIX-440).
659* [2007-12-18] Improve native code loading - bundle installation will now
660 fail in case a native library is not in the jar and we only use the first
661 library of a given name. Furthermore, we now support .dylib extensions on
662 the mac as well as others; should make it possible to use .netmodules as
663 well. (FELIX-439)
664* [2007-12-17] Make the win32 alias match any version of windows for native
665 clauses. (FELIX-438)
666* [2007-12-14] Removed auto-property processing out of the framework and
667 into the default launcher, i.e, main. (FELIX-393)
668* [2007-12-13] Fix a StackOverflowError in URLHandlers.createStreamHandler()
669 when creating URL on jamvm and Mika. This patch resolves an unfortunate
670 interaction between our ExtensionManager and the URLHandlers by making the
671 URLHandlers aware of the extension protocol. Pretty much like we do already
672 for the bundle protocol. (FELIX-435)
673* [2007-11-26] Fix a small oversight in the extension manager that could lead
674 to a null pointer exception and save some memory by creating less objects.
675* [2007-11-26] Degrate to version 0.0.0 if we can not find the Felix.properties
676 for some reason and avoid a null pointer in this case.
677* [2007-11-08] Reorganized usage count methods to better handle null
678 reference checking in response to Karl Pauls seeing an NPE when trying to
679 get a service that was already unregistered while shutting down the
680 framework.
681* [2007-11-06] Added a simple check to detect and work around a bug in J9.
682 (FELIX-416)
683* [2007-10-30] Change how the extension manager url stream handler handles
684 request to the root path in order to make some tomcat issue go away.
685 (FELIX-414)
686* [2007-10-26] Added support for "/" bundle resources as requested. (FELIX-383)
687* [2007-10-24] Use system bundle when firing a framework error event when an
688 install error occurs.
689* [2007-10-22] Fix a NPE when getEntryPaths is called on the system bundle.
690 (FELIX-394)
691* [2007-10-16] Modifies bundle resource URL handling such that if a resource
692 URL points to a resource that does not exist, a bundle class path search
693 for the resource will be instigated and if any matching resource is found,
694 that one will be used instead. (FELIX-383)
695* [2007-10-10] Auto-property handling now installs bundles into the default
696 bundle start level if a start level is not specified. (FELIX-359)
697* [2007-10-08] Overwrite the URLStreamHandler.getHostAddress(URL) in the
698 ExtensionManager to immediately return null to prevent DNS lookup.
699 (FELIX-388)
700* [2007-09-30] Resolved a concurrency issue that could result in the same
701 bundle being resolved more than once; also tried to simplify locking in
702 the core search policy implementation. (FELIX-381)

Karl Pauls305c9642007-09-16 20:46:04 +0000704Changes from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1
705---------------------------
706
707* [2007-07-23] Fixed a bug in the framework shutdown process which was
708 causing threads calling Felix.stopAndWait() to not get notified that
709 the framework had shutdown. (FELIX-329)
710* [2007-08-15] Fixed a bug in the LDAP filter which was not thread safe
711 on execution. (FELIX-338)
712* [2007-08-17] Added support for persistent last used bundle ID to avoid
713 re-use of bundle identifiers. (FELIX-339)
714* [2007-08-23] Modified BundleImpl.getHeaders(Locale) to accept a null
715 locale. (FELIX-346)
716* [2007-09-11] Added support to handle external termination of Felix
717 which was not handled or detected and prevented a restart of future
718 Felix instances in the same VM. (FELIX-363)
719* [2007-09-12] Add support for Collection values in the LDAP filter to
720 match the 4.1 spec.
721* [2007-09-12] Fixed a bug in the LDAP filter where attributes where
722 limited to [a-zA-Z ] so didn't allow for e.g., numbers. (FELIX-361)
723* [2007-09-13] Enable support for exporting the same package more than
724 once (FELIX-101).
725* [2007-09-13] Returns the system bundle from a call to
726 PackageAdmin.getBundle(Class) in case the class comes from the
727 classloader (or one of its parents) that loaded Felix and the system
728 bundle exports the package.
729* [2007-09-16] Fixed a bug in class space filtering in the service registry
730 that could result in class cast exceptions for service clients.
731* [2007-09-16] Fixed a bug that prevented extension bundle exports to be
732 usable.

739 capability/requirement model.
740* [2007-01-22] Reorganized and centralized manifest parsing code and added
741 support for resolver's generic capability/requirement model. (FELIX-98)
742* [2007-01-22] Improved native library naming normalization. (FELIX-26)
743* [2007-01-23] No longer eagerly resolving classes loaded from modules
744 since this was causing verification errors with IBM J9.
745* [2007-01-25] Added some support for execution environment checking.
746 (FELIX-23)
747* [2007-01-29] Added support for getAllServiceReferences(). (FELIX-32)
748* [2007-01-31] Added Require-Bundle support to resolve using the generic
749 capability/requirement model of the resolver. (FELIX-28)
750* [2007-02-05] Fixed a bug in processor type normalization for x86-64
751 processors.
752* [2007-02-09] The resolver previously ignored packages that were pending
753 removal when resolving new bundles, now it does not.
754* [2007-02-09] Bundles are automatically refreshed when updated/uninstalled
755 if none of their exported packages are in use.
756* [2007-02-13] Added support for extension bundles. (FELIX-30)
757* [2007-03-02] Added a Bundle.getBundleContext() method until actual

760 entries as well as file entries.
761* [2007-05-06] Modified LDAP evaluator to special case the fact that
762 BigDecimal is not available in Foundation profile.
763* [2007-05-21] Made some performance improvements in LDAP evaluation.
764* [2007-05-22] Modified JAR file to include Service Tracker package.
765* [2007-05-22] Improved concurrency handling around checking for already

767* [2007-06-05] Modified resource URLs to use port number rather than
768 prepend information to the resource path.
769* [2007-06-13] Improved dynamic imports to cycle through all available
770 candidates when checking for class space consistency.
771* [2007-06-18] Improved service registry filtering based on class versions
772 to allow a bundle to register a service for a different version of class
773 that it can access.
774* [2007-06-21] Modified our "last ditch effort" to guess when to delegate
775 to the system bundle to make it a little more robust.
776* [2007-06-29] Fixed a bug in EventDispatcher that was causing asynchronous
777 events to not be fired after stopping the framework instance and creating
778 a new instance. (FELIX-314)
779* [2007-07-03] Fixed a bug in EventDispatcher that would not correctly
780 update a listener when it implemented multiple listener interfaces.
781* [2007-07-04] Modified Felix framework class to implement the Bundle
782 interface to improve the startup/shutdown sequence and to provide a
783 simplified API for creating framework instances.
784* [2007-07-11] Removed the PropertyResolver-related classes and now only
785 use Maps for configuration properties. (FELIX-324)
