| additional guarantee with respect to application context creation and | |
| start levels:</p><p>Application context creation happens asynchronously. However, the | |
| extender bundle does guarantee that the creation of all application | |
| contexts for bundles at start level <code class="literal">n</code> will be | |
| complete before the creation of any application context at start level | |
| <code class="literal">m</code>, where <code class="literal">m > n</code>. Care must | |
| therefore be taken not to introduce any mandatory dependencies on | |
| services exported by bundles with higher start levels or a deadlock will | |
| be introduced.</p><p>In a similar vein, when shutting down the extender bundle, | |
| application contexts at start level <code class="literal">m</code> will be shut | |
| down before application contexts at start level <code class="literal">n</code>, | |
| where <code class="literal">m > n</code>.</p></div></div><div xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="appendix-tips.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="appendix-osgi-repo.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Appendix C.
