Interface BeanContextServices
- All Superinterfaces:
- BeanContext, BeanContextChild, BeanContextServiceRevokedListener, BeanContextServicesListener, Collection, DesignMode, EventListener, Visibility
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- BeanContextServicesSupport
- public interface BeanContextServices
- extends BeanContext, BeanContextServicesListener
The BeanContextServices interface provides a mechanism for a BeanContext
to expose generic "services" to the BeanContextChild objects within.

addService
public boolean addService(Class serviceClass,
BeanContextServiceProvider serviceProvider)
- Adds a service to this BeanContext.
BeanContextServiceProviders call this method
to register a particular service with this context.
If the service has not previously been added, the
BeanContextServices associates
the service with the BeanContextServiceProvider and
fires a BeanContextServiceAvailableEvent to all
currently registered BeanContextServicesListeners.
The method then returns true, indicating that
the addition of the service was successful.
If the given service has already been added, this method
simply returns false.
- Parameters:
serviceClass - the service to addserviceProvider - the BeanContextServiceProvider
associated with the service
revokeService
public void revokeService(Class serviceClass,
BeanContextServiceProvider serviceProvider,
boolean revokeCurrentServicesNow)
- BeanContextServiceProviders wishing to remove
a currently registered service from this context
may do so via invocation of this method. Upon revocation of
the service, the
BeanContextServices fires a
BeanContextServiceRevokedEvent to its
list of currently registered
BeanContextServiceRevokedListeners and
BeanContextServicesListeners.
- Parameters:
serviceClass - the service to revoke from this BeanContextServicesserviceProvider - the BeanContextServiceProvider associated with
this particular service that is being revokedrevokeCurrentServicesNow - a value of true
indicates an exceptional circumstance where the
BeanContextServiceProvider or
BeanContextServices wishes to immediately
terminate service to all currently outstanding references
to the specified service.
hasService
public boolean hasService(Class serviceClass)
- Reports whether or not a given service is
currently available from this context.
- Parameters:
serviceClass - the service in question- Returns:
- true if the service is available
getService
public Object getService(BeanContextChild child,
Object requestor,
Class serviceClass,
Object serviceSelector,
BeanContextServiceRevokedListener bcsrl)
throws TooManyListenersException
- A
BeanContextChild, or any arbitrary object
associated with a BeanContextChild, may obtain
a reference to a currently registered service from its
nesting BeanContextServices
via invocation of this method. When invoked, this method
gets the service by calling the getService() method on the
underlying BeanContextServiceProvider.
- Parameters:
child - the BeanContextChild
associated with this requestrequestor - the object requesting the serviceserviceClass - class of the requested serviceserviceSelector - the service dependent parameterbcsrl - the
BeanContextServiceRevokedListener to notify
if the service should later become revoked- Returns:
- a reference to this context's named
Service as requested or
null - Throws:
TooManyListenersException -
releaseService
public void releaseService(BeanContextChild child,
Object requestor,
Object service)
- Releases a
BeanContextChild's
(or any arbitrary object associated with a BeanContextChild)
reference to the specified service by calling releaseService()
on the underlying BeanContextServiceProvider.
- Parameters:
child - the BeanContextChildrequestor - the requestorservice - the service
getCurrentServiceClasses
public Iterator getCurrentServiceClasses()
- Gets the currently available services for this context.
- Returns:
- an
Iterator consisting of the
currently available services
getCurrentServiceSelectors
public Iterator getCurrentServiceSelectors(Class serviceClass)
- Gets the list of service dependent service parameters
(Service Selectors) for the specified service, by
calling getCurrentServiceSelectors() on the
underlying BeanContextServiceProvider.
- Parameters:
serviceClass - the specified service- Returns:
- the currently available service selectors
for the named serviceClass
addBeanContextServicesListener
public void addBeanContextServicesListener(BeanContextServicesListener bcsl)
- Adds a
BeanContextServicesListener to this BeanContext
- Parameters:
bcsl - the BeanContextServicesListener to add
removeBeanContextServicesListener
public void removeBeanContextServicesListener(BeanContextServicesListener bcsl)
- Removes a
BeanContextServicesListener
from this BeanContext
- Parameters:
bcsl - the BeanContextServicesListener
to remove from this context
