             Summary: Multi deployment package support at least by a predictable order
                 Key: ACE-395
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACE-395
             Project: ACE
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Deployment
            Reporter: Andrej Zachar
            Priority: Blocker


Dear Apache Ace committers!

We would like to deploy multiple deployment packages managed by org.apache.ace.management that have cross references!

The problem is that one deployment packages have some cross  references to other bundle in the other deployment packages. If they are deployed in a wrong other, the whole application is working.

Image situation:

Application deployment package
 +bundle 1 (requires licence bundle that is available in the other deloyment package)
 +bundle n (requires licence bundle)


Licence deployment package
 +licence bundle

To solve this issue I have introduced a simple solution: an order that tells org.apache.ace.management which agent has priority over the other agent.

This approach allows me to keep deployment packages isolated, but I can tell which deployment package (more precious which agent) will deploy first. 

For that reason I have also introduced many small improvements and before I will describe them all I want to know If there is an interest to cooperate on this topic.

Here is some overview of changes:

1. Deployment of fragments and large packages (introduced Time Outs param)

2. Improved logging
    
3. Simplified the configuration folder structure for  local agent's repositories


Thank you very much for your answer.

Best regards,
Andrej
