public interface ModuleDef

Defines the contents of a module. In the default case, this is information about the services provided by the module builder class.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Class	getBuilderClass() Returns the class that will be instantiated.
Set<ContributionDef>	getContributionDefs() Returns all the contribution definitions built/provided by this module.
Set<DecoratorDef>	getDecoratorDefs() Returns all the decorator definitions built/provided by this module.
String	getLoggerName() Returns the name used to create a Logger instance.
ServiceDef	getServiceDef(String serviceId) Returns a service definition via the service's id.
Set<String>	getServiceIds() Returns the ids of the services built/provided by the module.

Method Detail

getServiceIds

Set<String> getServiceIds()

Returns the ids of the services built/provided by the module.

getServiceDef

ServiceDef getServiceDef(String serviceId)

Returns a service definition via the service's id. Ideally, the returned value should be an instance of ServiceDef2, and will be converted to such if necessary.

Parameters:

serviceId - the id of the service to retrieve (case is ignored)

Returns:

service definition or null if it doesn't exist

getDecoratorDefs

Set<DecoratorDef> getDecoratorDefs()

Returns all the decorator definitions built/provided by this module.

getContributionDefs

Set<ContributionDef> getContributionDefs()

Returns all the contribution definitions built/provided by this module.

getBuilderClass

Class getBuilderClass()

Returns the class that will be instantiated. Annotated instance methods of this class are invoked to build services, to decorate/intercept services, and make contributions to other services. Note: this name is maintained for compatibilty; the term "module builder" is now just "module class".

getLoggerName

String getLoggerName()

Returns the name used to create a Logger instance. This is typically the builder class name.
