Class XMLObjectConfigurationFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.atlassian.configurable.XMLObjectConfigurationFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

ObjectConfigurationFactory

public class XMLObjectConfigurationFactory
extends Object
implements ObjectConfigurationFactory

This class retrieves an Object Configuration with a particular id. The Object Configuration must be unique as a user will set there own parameters on the object during its lifetime.

Constructor Summary

XMLObjectConfigurationFactory()
Creates a new XMLObjectConfigurationFactory object.

Method Summary

ObjectConfiguration	getObjectConfiguration(String id, Map params) This function retrieves an ObjectConfiguration based on a specified identifier, N.B.
boolean	hasObjectConfiguration(String id) Does this factory know about an ObjectConfiguration with the specified id
void	loadObjectConfiguration(String xmlFile, String id) This procedure loads an xml file into a holder object which is then used to contruct a real object when the get function is called.
void	loadObjectConfiguration(String xmlFile, String id, ClassLoader classLoader) This procedure loads an xml file into a holder object which is then used to contruct a real object when the get function is called.
void	loadObjectConfigurationFromElement(org.dom4j.Element element, ObjectDescriptor od, String id)
void	loadObjectConfigurationFromElement(org.dom4j.Element element, ObjectDescriptor od, String id, ClassLoader classLoader)

Constructor Detail

XMLObjectConfigurationFactory

public XMLObjectConfigurationFactory()

Creates a new XMLObjectConfigurationFactory object.

Method Detail

hasObjectConfiguration

public boolean hasObjectConfiguration(String id)

Does this factory know about an ObjectConfiguration with the specified id

Specified by:

hasObjectConfiguration in interface ObjectConfigurationFactory

Parameters:

id - Identifier for the object configuration to retrieve.

Returns:

object configuration is available.

getObjectConfiguration

public ObjectConfiguration getObjectConfiguration(String id,
                                                  Map params)
                                           throws ObjectConfigurationException

This function retrieves an ObjectConfiguration based on a specified identifier, N.B. must be mutable

Specified by:

getObjectConfiguration in interface ObjectConfigurationFactory

Parameters:

id - Identifier for the object configuration to retrieve.

Returns:

a ObjectConfiguration

Throws:

ObjectConfigurationException

loadObjectConfiguration

public void loadObjectConfiguration(String xmlFile,
                                    String id)
                             throws ObjectConfigurationException

This procedure loads an xml file into a holder object which is then used to contruct a real object when the get function is called. Uses the same class loader that loaded this instance of XMLObjectConfigurationFactory to load the xml file and descriptor classes.

Parameters:

xmlFile - the name of the resource on the classpath from which to load the config.

id - Identifier for the object configuration to retrieve.

Throws:

ObjectConfigurationException - if something is really wrong

loadObjectConfiguration

public void loadObjectConfiguration(String xmlFile,
                                    String id,
                                    ClassLoader classLoader)
                             throws ObjectConfigurationException

This procedure loads an xml file into a holder object which is then used to contruct a real object when the get function is called. Uses the provided class loader to load the xml file and descriptor classes.

Parameters:

xmlFile - the name of the resource on the classpath from which to load the config.

id - Identifier for the object configuration to retrieve.

classLoader - ClassLoader to use to load ObjectDescriptor classes and the xml file

Throws:

ObjectConfigurationException - if something is really wrong

loadObjectConfigurationFromElement

public void loadObjectConfigurationFromElement(org.dom4j.Element element,
                                               ObjectDescriptor od,
                                               String id)

loadObjectConfigurationFromElement

public void loadObjectConfigurationFromElement(org.dom4j.Element element,
                                               ObjectDescriptor od,
                                               String id,
                                               ClassLoader classLoader)
