Description _ pkuzel 2005-09-15 15:45:22 UTC
There are infrastructure modules (i.e. vcscore) that can provide very generic
services (here filesystem). Such services are typically used by many, many,
many, ... clients. It's unlikely that all clients release their references to
module service objects while disabling the service modules. Original service
module zombies remain and can clash with newly enabled services.

I think that IDE restart makes sense here (private implementation must exist
it's used by IDE updater....).

Should be addressed in 5.0 timeframe.
Comment 1 _ pkuzel 2005-09-15 16:11:00 UTC
Another (probably better) alternative is to add a "restartOnDisable" attribute
into module manifest. This attribute would be handled by module manager. This
approach is similar to existing "needsRestart" attribute.

Sorry, won't be addressed in 5.0 timeframe. We're several weeks after the
feature freeze.
Comment 3 Jan Chalupa 2005-09-16 09:10:09 UTC
Regardless of what priority you assign to this issue, it won't be implemented
for 5.0.

Has this feature been consulted with HIE?
