The org.osgi.framework.Bundle interface in R4.1 of OSGi has two new methods, start(int) and stop(int). There are on class in the mock package that implements Bundle, org.springframework.osgi.mock.MockBundle. If it would be modified to include these methods it would in combination with fixing #
OSGI-575 (
http://jira.springframework.org/browse/OSGI-575) make it possible to build Spring OSGi with OSGi R4.1, such as Equinox 3.3 and later.
Their actual implementation would be empty in this case.
