[jira] [Created] (FELIX-3692) [DS] api for finding out if async
work is done
David Jencks created FELIX-3692:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [DS] api for finding out if async work is done
Key: FELIX-3692
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3692
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Declarative Services (SCR)
Affects Versions: scr-1.8.0
Reporter: David Jencks
Assignee: David Jencks
Fix For: scr-1.8.0
It might be useful to provide a couple methods on ScrService so you can find out if all the async work is done.
I'm thinking
boolean tasksCompleted()
void waitForTasksCompleted()
This might be especially useful if we decide to adopt my "try again later" proposal for resolving more circular dependencies (FELIX-3557) since that can result in extra possibly unexpected async tasks.

Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-3692:
------------------------------------------
Thanks for providing the patch.
As discussed on the dev list [1] I am against such API.
In addition to what I said on the dev list, I also think such API is prone to concurrency issues. If at all, I'd rather change the Component.enable and .disable methods to operate synchronous instead of asynchronous. (or better yet, have the DS Admin API to be specified by the OSGi Alliance define these methods to be synchronous in the Admin API).

[jira] [Updated] (FELIX-3692) [DS] api for finding out if async
work is done

David Jencks updated FELIX-3692:
--------------------------------
Attachment: FELIX-3692-1.diff
Simple api to determine if async work is completed. This is slightly entangled with the 2nd "later" patch to FELIX-3557, that will be needed to apply this one cleanly.
