Interface ServiceUnit

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultServiceUnit, EndpointTracker.OsgiServiceUnit, XBeanServiceUnit

public interface ServiceUnit

This interface defines the lifecycle and needed methods to a collection of endpoints grouped into a service unit.

Method Summary

void	addEndpoint(Endpoint ep) Adds an endpoint to this service unit.
ServiceMixComponent	getComponent() Retrieves the component where this SU is deployed.
ClassLoader	getConfigurationClassLoader() Retrieve this service unit specific classloader.
String	getCurrentState() Retrieve the state of this service unit.
Collection<Endpoint>	getEndpoints() Retrieves the list of deployed endpoints.
String	getName() Retrieves the name of this service unit.
String	getRootPath() Retrieves the root path of this service unit.
void	init() Puts the SU in a STOPPED state.
void	removeEndpoint(Endpoint ep) Removes an endpoint from this service unit.
void	shutDown() Transition this service unit into the SHUTDOWN state.
void	start() Transition this service unit into the STARTED state.
void	stop() Transition this service unit to a STOPPED state.

Method Detail

getName

String getName()

Retrieves the name of this service unit.

Returns:

getRootPath

String getRootPath()

Retrieves the root path of this service unit.

Returns:

getComponent

ServiceMixComponent getComponent()

Retrieves the component where this SU is deployed.

Returns:

getEndpoints

Collection<Endpoint> getEndpoints()

Retrieves the list of deployed endpoints.

Returns:

getConfigurationClassLoader

ClassLoader getConfigurationClassLoader()

Retrieve this service unit specific classloader.

Returns:

getCurrentState

String getCurrentState()

Retrieve the state of this service unit. States can be: STOPPED, STARTED or SHUTDOWN

Returns:

init

void init()
          throws Exception

Puts the SU in a STOPPED state. This call is only valid if the service unit is in a SHUTDOWN state. It means it is able to process incoming exchange but will not initiate new exchanges. The process of initializing a service unit should activate all endpoints, but not start them.

Throws:

Exception

See Also:

Endpoint.start()

start

void start()
           throws Exception

Transition this service unit into the STARTED state. This call is only valid if the service unit is in a STOPPED state. Start consumption of external requests by starting all the endpoints.

Throws:

Exception

See Also:

Endpoint.start()

stop

void stop()
          throws Exception

Transition this service unit to a STOPPED state. This call is only valid if the service unit is in a STARTED state.

Throws:

Exception

See Also:

Endpoint.stop()

shutDown

void shutDown()
              throws Exception

Transition this service unit into the SHUTDOWN state. This call is only valid if the service unit is in a STOPPED state.

Throws:

Exception

See Also:

Endpoint.deactivate()

addEndpoint

void addEndpoint(Endpoint ep)
                 throws javax.jbi.management.DeploymentException

Adds an endpoint to this service unit. Adding an endpoint will transition this endpoint into a state which is consistent with this service unit state.

Parameters:

ep -

Throws:

javax.jbi.management.DeploymentException

removeEndpoint

void removeEndpoint(Endpoint ep)
                    throws javax.jbi.management.DeploymentException

Removes an endpoint from this service unit. Removing an endpoint will transition it into the SHUTDOWN state.

Parameters:

ep -

Throws:

javax.jbi.management.DeploymentException
