Class SingletonServiceLifecycle

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.tapestry5.ioc.internal.SingletonServiceLifecycle

All Implemented Interfaces:

ServiceLifecycle, ServiceLifecycle2

public class SingletonServiceLifecycle
extends Object
implements ServiceLifecycle2

The basic implementation of a service lifecycle, which simply uses the ObjectCreator to create an instance of the service when asked.

Constructor Summary

SingletonServiceLifecycle()

Method Summary

Object	createService(ServiceResources resources, ObjectCreator creator) Returns the same creator, or a new one, that encapsulates the creation of the core service implementation.
boolean	isSingleton() Returns true if the lifecycle is a singleton (a service that will only be created once).
boolean	requiresProxy() If true, then lifecycle requires a proxy, meaning it is only useable with services that properly define a service interface.

Method Detail

createService

public Object createService(ServiceResources resources,
                            ObjectCreator creator)

Description copied from interface: ServiceLifecycle

Returns the same creator, or a new one, that encapsulates the creation of the core service implementation.

Specified by:

createService in interface ServiceLifecycle

Parameters:

resources - source of information about the service to be created, and source of additional services or other resources that may be needed when constructing the core service implementation

creator - object capable of creating the service implementation on demand. This is a wrapper around the service's builder method.

Returns:

the service or equivalent service proxy

isSingleton

public boolean isSingleton()

Description copied from interface: ServiceLifecycle

Returns true if the lifecycle is a singleton (a service that will only be created once). Return false if the underlying service instance may be created multiple times (for example, the ScopeConstants.PERTHREAD scope}. A future version of Tapestry IoC may optimize for the later case.

Specified by:

isSingleton in interface ServiceLifecycle

Returns:

true for singletons, false for services that can be repeatedly constructed

requiresProxy

public boolean requiresProxy()

Description copied from interface: ServiceLifecycle2

If true, then lifecycle requires a proxy, meaning it is only useable with services that properly define a service interface. The default (singleton) scope does not require a proxy, but most other service scopes do. The default (when wrapping a ServiceLifecycle as a ServiceLifecycle2 is to return true.

Specified by:

requiresProxy in interface ServiceLifecycle2

Returns:

true if proxying is necesssary, false otherwise
