/**
* Framework Start Level Package Version 1.0.
*
*
* The Framework Start Level package allows management agents to manage a start
* level assigned to each bundle and the active start level of the Framework.
* This package is a replacement for the now deprecated
* {@code org.osgi.service.startlevel} package.
*
*
* A start level is defined to be a state of execution in which the Framework
* exists. Start level values are defined as unsigned integers with 0 (zero)
* being the state where the Framework is not launched. Progressively higher
* integral values represent progressively higher start levels. For example, 2
* is a higher start level than 1.
*
*
* {@code AdminPermission} is required to modify start level information.
*
*
* Start Level support in the Framework includes the ability to modify the
* active start level of the Framework and to assign a specific start level to a
* bundle. The beginning start level of a Framework is specified via the
* {@link org.osgi.framework.Constants#FRAMEWORK_BEGINNING_STARTLEVEL} framework
* property when configuring a framework.
*
*
* When the Framework is first started it must be at start level zero. In this
* state, no bundles are running. This is the initial state of the Framework
* before it is launched. When the Framework is launched, the Framework will
* enter start level one and all bundles which are assigned to start level one
* and whose autostart setting indicates the bundle should be started are
* started as described in the {@link org.osgi.framework.Bundle#start(int)}
* method. The Framework will continue to increase the start level, starting
* bundles at each start level, until the Framework has reached a beginning
* start level. At this point the Framework has completed starting bundles and
* will then fire a Framework event of type
* {@link org.osgi.framework.FrameworkEvent#STARTED} to announce it has
* completed its launch.
*
*
* Within a start level, bundles may be started in an order defined by the
* Framework implementation. This may be something like ascending
* {@link org.osgi.framework.Bundle#getBundleId()} order or an order based upon
* dependencies between bundles. A similar but reversed order may be used when
* stopping bundles within a start level.
*
*
* The Framework Start Level package can be used by management bundles to alter
* the active start level of the framework.
*
*
* Bundles wishing to use this package must list the package in the
* Import-Package header of the bundle's manifest. For example:
*
*
* Import-Package: org.osgi.framework.startlevel; version="[1.0,2.0)"
