running felix embedded on felix based app servers
Hello All,
Does anyone have a reference or know the details of solving the Protocol
handler initialization issues when Felix is run embedded (isolated or not)
within an Felix based app server? Of all the app server combinations we've
tested, with both equinox and felix embedded (so far we support both
equality well) Felix based Glassfish and Jonas are giving us the problem
mentioned.
I've looked through the source code and debugged through it. Disabling
protocol initialization (even though it's possible) does not appear to be a
valid option because then the embedded framework can't even handled
bundles.
It really just seems like possibly incorrect error handling roughly around
lines 176-183 of URLHandlers class.
The URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory(currentFactory) invocation throws an
Error, not an Exception (due to the fact that there is already an factory
configured), and this throws the entire runtime into self destruct mode.
Thoughts?

Posted by Karl Pauls <ka...@gmail.com>.
well, no - this is actually a real problem that isn't related to being more
robust. The point is, we detect that there already is a felix that provided
a handler and don't register.
Now, the real fix would be to get a release and have glassfish update to
that one. However, that isn't going to help with older versions of
glassfish and no matter what would take some time.
I have to think about it. One way might be to just swap it out regardless
but that might have other side-effects - I'd have to think about it. Feel
free to create a new issue as an improvement or something.
regards,
Karl

Re: running felix embedded on felix based app servers
Posted by Raymond Auge <ra...@liferay.com>.
Thank you Karl,
The fix got me further.
However, I have now encountered a subsequent issue related to the
URLHandlers. which is due to the error which is caught and ignored, we have
not in fact replaced the original handler with a new one, or in fact, even
registered one for the new framework.
The result is that later during URL handling, the detection of the
framework, which is falling now to the parent (glassfish) version of Felix
using it's own version of
URLHandlers.getFrameworkFromContext()
which fails to recognize and load a framework by classloader class called:
org.apache.felix.framework.BundleWiringImpl$BundleClassLoader*
When I manipulate the targetClass to assign a class from the stack of the
belonging to the valid classLoader, it works.
I think the original fix maybe need to be a little more robust. I'll do
what I can to try and solve it myself in the meantime.
