    • ACCESS_ENCOURAGED

      static final int ACCESS_ENCOURAGED
      Indicates that access is encouraged to an ExportPackageDescription.

    • ACCESS_DISCOURAGED

      static final int ACCESS_DISCOURAGED
      Indicates that access is discouraged to an ExportPackageDescription.

    • VISIBLE_INCLUDE_EE_PACKAGES

      static final int VISIBLE_INCLUDE_EE_PACKAGES
      An option to include packages available from the execution environment when getting the visible packages of a bundle. For example, when running on a J2SE 1.4 VM the system bundle will export the javax.xml.parsers package as part of the execution environment. When this option is used then any packages from the execution environment which the bundle is wired to will be included.

    • VISIBLE_INCLUDE_ALL_HOST_WIRES

      static final int VISIBLE_INCLUDE_ALL_HOST_WIRES
      An option to get all visible packages that a host bundle is currently wired to. This includes packages wired to as a result of a dynamic import and packages wired to as a result of additional constraints specified by a fragment bundle. Using this option with a fragment will cause an empty array to be returned.

    • getDependentBundles

      BundleDescription[] getDependentBundles(BundleDescription[] bundles)
      Returns all bundles in the state depending on the given bundles. The given bundles appear in the returned array.
      Parameters:
      bundles - the initial set of bundles
      Returns:
      an array containing bundle descriptions for the given roots and all bundles in the state that depend on them

    • getPrerequisites

      BundleDescription[] getPrerequisites(BundleDescription[] bundles)
      Returns all the prerequisite bundles in the state for the given bundles. The given bundles appear in the returned array.
      Parameters:
      bundles - the inital set of bundles
      Returns:
      an array containing bundle descriptions for the given leaves and their prerequisite bundles in the state.
      Since:
      3.2

    • getUnsatisfiedConstraints

      VersionConstraint[] getUnsatisfiedConstraints(BundleDescription bundle)
      Returns all unsatisfied constraints in the given bundle. Returns an empty array if no unsatisfied constraints can be found.

      Note that a bundle may have no unsatisfied constraints and still not be resolved.

      Parameters:
      bundle - the bundle to examine
      Returns:
      an array containing all unsatisfied constraints for the given bundle

    • getUnsatisfiedLeaves

      VersionConstraint[] getUnsatisfiedLeaves(BundleDescription[] bundles)
      Returns all unsatisfied constraints in the given bundles that have no possible supplier. Returns an empty array if no unsatisfied leaf constraints can be found.

      The returned constraints include only the unsatisfied constraints in the given state that have no possible supplier (leaf constraints). There may be additional unsatisfied constraints in the given bundles but these will have at least one possible supplier. In this case the possible supplier of the constraint is not resolved for some reason. For example, a given state only has Bundles X and Y installed and Bundles X and Y have the following constraints: 

       Bundle X requires Bundle Y
 Bundle Y requires Bundle Z

      In this case Bundle Y has an unsatisfied constraint leaf on Bundle Z. This will cause Bundle X's constraint on Bundle Y to be unsatisfied as well because the bundles are involved in a dependency chain. Bundle X's constraint on Bundle Y is not considered a leaf because there is a possible supplier Y in the given state.

      Note that a bundle may have no unsatisfied constraints and still not be resolved.

      Parameters:
      bundles - the bundles to examine
      Returns:
      an array containing all unsatisfied leaf constraints for the given bundles

    • isResolvable

      boolean isResolvable(ImportPackageSpecification specification)
      Returns whether the given package specification constraint is resolvable. A package specification constraint may be resolvable but not resolved, which means that the bundle that provides it has not been resolved for some other reason (e.g. another constraint could not be resolved, another version has been picked, etc).
      Parameters:
      specification - the package specification constraint to be examined
      Returns:
      true if the constraint can be resolved, false otherwise

    • isResolvable

      boolean isResolvable(BundleSpecification specification)
      Returns whether the given bundle specification constraint is resolvable. A bundle specification constraint may be resolvable but not resolved, which means that the bundle that provides it has not been resolved for some other reason (e.g. another constraint could not be resolved, another version has been picked, etc).
      Parameters:
      specification - the bundle specification constraint to be examined
      Returns:
      true if the constraint can be resolved, false otherwise

    • isResolvable

      boolean isResolvable(HostSpecification specification)
      Returns whether the given host specification constraint is resolvable. A host specification constraint may be resolvable but not resolved, which means that the bundle that provides it has not been resolved for some other reason (e.g. another constraint could not be resolved, another version has been picked, etc).
      Parameters:
      specification - the host specification constraint to be examined
      Returns:
      true if the constraint can be resolved, false otherwise

    • sortBundles

      Object[][] sortBundles(BundleDescription[] toSort)
      Sorts the given array of resolved bundles in pre-requisite order. If A requires B, A appears after B. Fragments will appear after all of their hosts. Constraints contributed by fragments will be treated as if contributed by theirs hosts, affecting their position. This is true even if the fragment does not appear in the given bundle array.

      Unresolved bundles are ignored.

      Parameters:
      toSort - an array of bundles to be sorted
      Returns:
      any cycles found

    • getVisiblePackages

      ExportPackageDescription[] getVisiblePackages(BundleDescription bundle)
      Returns a list of all packages that the specified bundle has access to which are exported by other bundles.

      Same as calling getVisiblePackages(bundle, 0)

      Parameters:
      bundle - a bundle to get the list of packages for.
      Returns:
      a list of all packages that the specified bundle has access to which are exported by other bundles.

    • getVisiblePackages

      ExportPackageDescription[] getVisiblePackages(BundleDescription bundle, int options)
      Returns a list of all packages that the specified bundle has access to which are exported by other bundles. This takes into account all constraint specifications (Import-Package, Require-Bundle etc). A deep dependency search is done for all packages which are available through the required bundles and any bundles which are reexported. This method also takes into account all directives which may be specified on the constraint specifications (e.g. uses, x-friends etc.)
      Parameters:
      bundle - a bundle to get the list of packages for.
      options - the options for selecting the visible packages
      Returns:
      a list of all packages that the specified bundle has access to which are exported by other bundles.

    • getAccessCode

      int getAccessCode(BundleDescription bundle, ExportPackageDescription export)
      Returns the access code that the specified BundleDescription has to the specified ExportPackageDescription.
      Parameters:
      bundle - the bundle to find the access code for
      export - the export to find the access code for
      Returns:
      the access code to the export.
