Ordering with plan file only used with Repository ?

[vishalj]

I have two bundles say BundleA and BundleB.

BundleB depends upon BundleA.

Now when deploying these bundle itself i have to follow the order .


So now i assume plan file is solving my ordering issues

For plan to solve ordering these bundles need to be deployed first then plan is just referring to these bundles.

My question is if i have to deploy the bundles before deploying the plan and that too in order how is plan solving my ordering problem ?

Also i do not want to use hosted repository .

Rather than deployed the two bundles, you should copy them to your dm Server's local repository. In 2.0 M5 this would be, by default, repository/usr. This is a watched repository which will automatically update itself when the bundles are copied into the directory that it is watching. You can configure how frequently it performs this check in the com.springsource.repository.properties file. Having copied the two bundles to the local repository, you can then deploy the plan file by copying it into the pickup directory. dm Server will find the two bundles which it references in its repository and then deploy them in the order specified in the plan.

Thanks andy it solved my problem but yet another doubt i have is

In previous version there was no support for atmic="false",
Now does the dm version M5 support this

[Andy Wilkinson]

Excellent, thanks for letting me know.

Yes, M5 supports both scoped and unscoped plans.

My scoped plan is not working

MyPlan.plan

scoped="true" atomic="false"
<artifact type="bundle" name="BundleOneForPlan" version="[1.0.0, 2.0.0)"/>
<artifact type="bundle" name="BundleTwoForPlan" version="[1.0.0, 3.1.0)"/>

MyPlanTwo.plan

scoped="true" atomic="false"
<artifact type="bundle" name="BundleOneForPlan" version="[1.0.0, 2.0.0)"/>
<artifact type="bundle" name="BundleTwoTwoForPlan" version="[1.0.0, 3.1.0)"/>

BundleOneForPlan is exposing an OSGi -service other two bundles are referring to the same service

the deployment of second plan was not successful

In the plan definitions listed above, both are scoped. Is that right, or should MyPlan have scoped=false?
