Any bundle can stop the framework. After stopping, the launcher receives a notification and normally
exit the process with System.exit
. In some cases, usually testing, it is necessary to do a restart
in the local VM.
If -runframeworkrestart
is set to true
, the launcher will not do a hard exit after the framework is stopped,
but will restart the framework after doing the normal clean up.
The launcher keeps a system property launcher.framework.restart.count
that is set to the iteration, it is initially zero.
