Description

I think that the implementation of Changing the Active Start Level is different from Spec.

see:
OSGi Service Platform Core Specification Release 4, Version 4.3, Figure 8.2 page154

Move to requested start level R, active level is A, B is a bundle's start level

Spec:
if (A < R)
while (A < R)

{ A = A + 1 Start All bundles where B = A }

Implementation:
if (A < R)
Start All bundles where B <= R
A = R

Similarly, if A > R.
