Well, I don't know exactly how GF is processing the modules in the
modules directory, but the proper way to reload a bundle in OSGi is with
the "update" command. If the bundle you want to update is in the same
location from which it was originally installed with the same file name,
then you can just do:
update <bundle-id>
If it is in a different location or file name, then you can do:
update <bundle-id> <update-jar-url>
If your bundle does not export any packages, then this should be
sufficient. If it does, you will likely need to do a "refresh" after the
update.
