  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When an active CICS-Bundle is "disabled", "discarded" and then
new "installed" (e.g. for a bundle-refresh), then the
OSGi-Bundle will become ACTIVE before the
BundleActivator-start-method has finished. The main-method of
that bundle can be called although the start-method of the
BundleActivator is still in progress. That leads to some
problems, because the activator prepares the way for that
bundle. Because of that problem, it is not possible to refresh
the JAVA-Code in a running CICS-Region.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users.                              *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Able to call CICS-MainClass before      *
*                      OSGI Bundle Activator has completed.    *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
When a CICS BUNDLE containing an OSGi Bundle is installed, the
CICS-MainClass's within the OSGi Bundle are registered with the
OSGi framework.  If an Activator is enabled then the
registration can happen prior to the Activator completing.  This
allows the CICS-MainClass's to be linked to prior to the OSGi
Bundle activation completing which could cause errors in the
executing transaction.

Problem conclusion

  • CICS OSGi bundle registration has been updated to only register
when an OSGi Bundle becomes ACTIVE.
