-resolve (manual|auto|beforelaunch|batch)

The bnd workspace can use a resolver to calculate the content of the -runbundles instruction based on a set of initial requirements. The bndtools GUI can manually resolve the initial requirements but through the -resolve instruction it is possible to calculate the -runbundles when the file is saved or just before the -runbundles are used in the launch.

The values are:

• manual – It is up to the user to resolve the initial requirements
• auto – Whenever the initial requirements are saved, the resolver will be used to set new -runbundles
• beforelaunch – Calculate the -runbundles on demand. This ignores the value of the -runbundles and runs the resolver. The results of the resolver are cached. This cache works by creating a checksum over all the properties of the project.
• batch – When running in batch mode, the run bundles will be resolved. In all other modes this will only resolve when the -runbundles are empty.
