Abstract

A bundle entering a set of starting and active bundles within a bundle framework is detected by a controller bundle executed by a processor. It is determined whether a manifest of the bundle includes an extension header that identifies an application and an aliased additional version of the application. It is determined whether an active application proxy object that represents the application as an active service registered from a previously-started bundle already exists within a service registry. An inactive application proxy object that represents a defined entry point class of the application and an additional active application proxy object that represents a defined entry point class of the aliased additional version of the application are created. The created additional active application proxy object is registered as an additional service within the service registry of the bundle framework.
