             Summary: Support parallel bundle starting
                 Key: FELIX-5383
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5383
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: File Install
    Affects Versions: fileinstall-3.5.4
            Reporter: Matt Magoffin


I have an application that uses Felix File Install to start a set of bundles that use Blueprint configuration extensively, but with the poll time disabled ({{felix.fileinstall.poll = 0}}) because I only want the bundles started at application startup time. Sometimes one bundle might have a Blueprint service dependency provided by another bundle such that when started and that other bundle has not been started yet causes a service timeout. The ordering File Install uses to start bundles is indeterminate (a {{HashSet}} is passed to {{startBundles(Collection<Bundle> bundles)}}) so I thought a good solution would be to start bundles in parallel, so if one bundle gets stuck when starting, waiting for a Blueprint service to become available, other bundles can continue to be started under the assumption one of them will be providing that service "soon".
