Fuse 4: Spawned thread within OSGI bundle wont die when stopped

[guest]

Hello, I'm a newbie to this stuff and I notice when I stop my osgi bundle, the threads within it seem to stay alive.  How can I stop the threads upon stopping the bundle?  Thanks.

Hi,

Don't know the details about your scenario, but you can specify a BundleActivator for your bundle, and in the stop method of BundleActivator, you can do some clean up work(like release some resources).

Or you can have a watch dog bundle, which implements BundleListener interface, when the BundleEvent type is BundleEvent.STOP, you can get the stopped bundle from BundleEvent and do any cleanup work there.

L.S.,

Another option would be to use Blueprint or Spring DM to create the threads from a bean and use the init-method/destroy-method attributes to specify the methods to handle the lifecycle of your threads when the Blueprint context gets started.
