Child Context and Installed Bundles

How are bundles related to child contexts? Are the bundles of a parent installed and available for the children or just the injector is shared?

ie
` var c1:Context = new Context()
.install( MVCSBundle ) .configure( MyConfig ) .configure( new ContextView( this ) );

var c2:Context = new Context()
.configure( MyConfig2 ) .configure( new ContextView( that ) );

c.addChild( c2 );
`

   Hi,

   Extensions are not inherited by the child context.

   Each new Context does this:
   _extensionInstaller = new ExtensionInstaller(this);

   When you say context.install(MVCSBundle);

   the Context does this:

   public function install(... extensions):IContext
   {
       for each (var extension:Object in extensions)
       {
           _extensionInstaller.install(extension);
       }
       return this;
   }
   

   _extensionInstaller.install(extension):

   Each Context can use its own extensions defined in a class that implements IBundle. You can add your own extensions to that bundle, or choose only the extensions provided by the framework that you really need in that Context. Say, you don't need the MediatorMapExtension or the TraceLoggingExtension, you simply don't add them to the bundle.

   Each Context does this:

   private const _injector:IInjector = new RobotlegsInjector();

   https://github.com/robotlegs/robotlegs-framework/blob/master/src/ro...

   When a child context is added: https://github.com/robotlegs/robotlegs-framework/blob/master/src/ro...,
   the parent Context does this:

   child.injector.parent = injector;
