Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	canLoad(String className)
RemoteDirectory	getDirectory(Directory directory) Loads the RemoteDirectory implementation class for a specific (already saved) Directory configuration.
RemoteDirectory	getRawDirectory(Long id, String className, Map<String,String> attributes) Loads a guaranteed un-cached directory implementation for a specific configuration.

Method Detail

getDirectory

RemoteDirectory getDirectory(Directory directory)
                      throws DirectoryInstantiationException

Loads the RemoteDirectory implementation class for a specific (already saved) Directory configuration.

Implementations of this method may choose to cache the RemoteDirectory, so this must only be called for Directories that have been successfully saved.

Parameters:

directory - The directory to load the RemoteDirectory implementation from.

Returns:

The RemoteDirectory loaded implementation.

Throws:

DirectoryInstantiationException - If the RemoteDirectory implementation could not be loaded.

getRawDirectory

RemoteDirectory getRawDirectory(Long id,
                                String className,
                                Map<String,String> attributes)
                         throws DirectoryInstantiationException

Loads a guaranteed un-cached directory implementation for a specific configuration.

Parameters:

id - Directory ID

className - class name of directory.

attributes - the configuration attributes to pass to the RemoteDirectory

Returns:

The loaded RemoteDirectory implementation.

Throws:

DirectoryInstantiationException - if a RemoteDirectory implementation can not be loaded.

canLoad

boolean canLoad(String className)

Parameters:

className - class name of directory.

Returns:

true iff the directory can load the directory of the specified class.
