25 /**
26 * Customizes the starting and stopping of a bundle.
27 * <p>
28 * <code>BundleActivator</code> is an interface that may be implemented when a
29 * bundle is started or stopped. The Framework can create instances of a
30 * bundle's <code>BundleActivator</code> as required. If an instance's
31 * <code>BundleActivator.start</code> method executes successfully, it is
32 * guaranteed that the same instance's <code>BundleActivator.stop</code>
33 * method will be called when the bundle is to be stopped. The Framework must
34 * not concurrently call a <code>BundleActivator</code> object.
35 *
36 * <p>
37 * <code>BundleActivator</code> is specified through the
38 * <code>Bundle-Activator</code> Manifest header. A bundle can only specify a
39 * single <code>BundleActivator</code> in the Manifest file. Fragment bundles
40 * must not have a <code>BundleActivator</code>. The form of the Manifest
41 * header is:
42 *
43 * <p>
44 * <code>Bundle-Activator: <i>class-name</i></code>
45 *
46 * <p>
47 * where <code><i>class-name</i></code> is a fully qualified Java classname.
48 * <p>
49 * The specified <code>BundleActivator</code> class must have a public
50 * constructor that takes no parameters so that a <code>BundleActivator</code>
51 * object can be created by <code>Class.newInstance()</code>.
52 *
