Clement Escoffier commented on FELIX-3537:
------------------------------------------

Some work is done in : FELIX-4130.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-4130

ComponentInstance is now accessible from the instance description object. Instance descriptino are accessible from the Architecture service or from a managed object via the Pojo interface.

> Currently, ComponentInstance works great with iPOJO's Factory:
> With the Factory, you can create a new ComponentInstance, and using the ComponentInstance returned, you have some control over the instance (start/stop/dispose/reconfigure).
> This is very nice, but the limitation is that the ComponentInstance is only known within your "session" with the Factory, you cannot access it outside.
> That means, for example, that an instance created from the metadata.xml will never be startable, stoppable or reconfigurable.
> So I would like to have a way to obtain ComponentInstance(s) from the iPOJO API.
