[jira] [Commented] (GERONIMODEVTOOLS-718) Update a bundle within an EBA

["Han Hong Fang (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMODEVTOOLS-718?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13010597#comment-13010597 ] 

Han Hong Fang commented on GERONIMODEVTOOLS-718:
------------------------------------------------

The solution is to keep the updated bundle only in the geronimo server cache instead of geronimo server repository. So in following cases the updated bundle will be lost, and the original bundle included in EBA archive file comes back.

1. Start geronimo server with --clean option
2. Restart EBA application in Admin console -> Application EBAs

BTW, the feature is not enabled by default. User can turn it on/off in server editor section named "Refresh OSGi bundle within OSGi application".

> Some EBAs might be huge and contain many bundles. Right now whenever a bundle in a EBA is updated, the entire EBA is re-assembled and re-deployed to the server. That of course, can be expensive if the application is big. So it would be nice if only the updated bundle was re-deployed to the server.
> This feature will probably require changes to the server's deployer code or might need a new set of API for deploying & managing bundles within or outside of EBAs.
