	/**
	 * Refreshes the specified bundles. This forces the update (replacement) or
	 * removal of packages exported by the specified bundles.
	 * 
	 * <p>
	 * The technique by which the framework refreshes bundles may vary among
	 * different framework implementations. A permissible implementation is to
	 * stop and restart the framework.
	 * 
	 * <p>
	 * This method returns to the caller immediately and then performs the
	 * following steps on a separate thread:
	 * 
	 * <ol>
	 * <li>Compute the {@link #getDependencyClosure(Collection) dependency
	 * closure} of the specified bundles. If no bundles are specified, compute
	 * the dependency closure of the {@link #getRemovalPendingBundles() removal
	 * pending} bundles.
	 * 
	 * <li>Each bundle in the dependency closure that is in the {@code ACTIVE}
	 * state will be stopped as described in the {@code Bundle.stop} method.
	 * 
	 * <li>Each bundle in the dependency closure that is in the {@code RESOLVED}
	 * state is unresolved and thus moved to the {@code INSTALLED} state. The
	 * effect of this step is that bundles in the dependency closure are no
	 * longer {@code RESOLVED}.
	 * 
	 * <li>Each bundle in the dependency closure that is in the
	 * {@code UNINSTALLED} state is removed from the dependency closure and is
	 * now completely removed from the Framework.
	 * 
	 * <li>Each bundle in the dependency closure that was in the {@code ACTIVE}
	 * state prior to Step 2 is started as described in the {@code Bundle.start}
	 * method, causing all bundles required for the restart to be resolved. It
	 * is possible that, as a result of the previous steps, packages that were
	 * previously exported no longer are. Therefore, some bundles may be
	 * unresolvable until bundles satisfying the dependencies have been
	 * installed in the Framework.
	 * </ol>
	 * 
	 * <p>
	 * For any exceptions that are thrown during any of these steps, a framework
	 * event of type {@code FrameworkEvent.ERROR} is fired containing the
	 * exception. The source bundle for these events should be the specific
	 * bundle to which the exception is related. If no specific bundle can be
	 * associated with the exception then the System Bundle must be used as the
	 * source bundle for the event. All framework events fired by this method
	 * are also delivered to the specified {@code FrameworkListener}s in the
	 * order they are specified.
	 * 
	 * <p>
	 * When this process completes after the bundles are refreshed, the
	 * Framework will fire a Framework event of type
	 * {@code FrameworkEvent.PACKAGES_REFRESHED} to announce it has completed
	 * the bundle refresh. The specified {@code FrameworkListener}s are notified
	 * in the order specified. Each specified {@code FrameworkListener} will be
	 * called with a Framework event of type
	 * {@code FrameworkEvent.PACKAGES_REFRESHED}.
	 * 
	 * @param bundles The bundles to be refreshed, or {@code null} to refresh
	 *        the {@link #getRemovalPendingBundles() removal pending} bundles.
	 * @param listeners Zero or more listeners to be notified when the bundle
	 *        refresh has been completed. The specified listeners do not need to
	 *        be otherwise registered with the framework. If a specified
	 *        listener is already registered with the framework, it will be
	 *        notified twice.
	 * @throws IllegalArgumentException If the specified {@code Bundle}s were
	 *         not created by the same framework instance associated with this
	 *         FrameworkWiring.
	 * @throws SecurityException If the caller does not have

	 *         runtime environment supports permissions.
