Dynamically loads all components defined using Annotations and declared in META-INF/components.txt files.

Field Summary

static String	COMPONENT_LIST Location in the classloader of the file defining the list of component implementation class to parser for annotations.
static String	COMPONENT_OVERRIDE_LIST Deprecated. starting with 3.3M1 use the notion of priorities instead (see ComponentDeclaration).

Constructor Summary

Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize(ComponentManager manager,
                       ClassLoader classLoader)

Loads all components defined using annotations.

Parameters:

manager - the component manager to use to dynamically register components

classLoader - the classloader to use to look for the Component list declaration file ( META-INF/components.txt)

initialize

public void initialize(ComponentManager manager,
                       ClassLoader classLoader,
                       List<ComponentDeclaration> componentDeclarations)

Parameters:

manager - the component manager to use to dynamically register components

classLoader - the classloader to use to look for the Component list declaration file ( META-INF/components.txt)

componentDeclarations - the declarations of components to register

Since:

3.3M1

register

public void register(ComponentManager manager,
                     ClassLoader classLoader,
                     List<ComponentDeclaration> componentDeclarations)

Parameters:

manager - the component manager to use to dynamically register components

classLoader - the classloader to use to look for the Component list declaration file ( META-INF/components.txt)

componentDeclarations - the declarations of components to register

Since:

4.0M1

unregister

public void unregister(ComponentManager manager,
                       ClassLoader classLoader,
                       List<ComponentDeclaration> componentDeclarations)

Parameters:

manager - the component manager to use to dynamically register components

classLoader - the classloader to use to look for the Component list declaration file ( META-INF/components.txt)

componentDeclarations - the declarations of components to register

Since:

4.0M1

getComponentsDescriptors

public List<ComponentDescriptor> getComponentsDescriptors(Class<?> componentClass)

findComponentRoleTypes

public Set<Type> findComponentRoleTypes(Class<?> componentClass)

findComponentRoleTypes

public Set<Type> findComponentRoleTypes(Class<?> componentClass,
                                        Type[] parameters)

findComponentRoleClasses

@Deprecated
public Set<Class<?>> findComponentRoleClasses(Class<?> componentClass)

Deprecated. since 4.0M1 use findComponentRoleTypes(Class) instead

Finds the interfaces that implement component roles by looking recursively in all interfaces of the passed component implementation class. If the roles annotation value is specified then use the specified list instead of doing auto-discovery. Also note that we support component classes implementing JSR 330's Provider (and thus without a component role annotation).

Parameters:

componentClass - the component implementation class for which to find the component roles it implements

Returns:

the list of component role classes implemented

getDeclaredComponents

public List<ComponentDeclaration> getDeclaredComponents(InputStream componentListStream)
                                                 throws IOException

Get all components listed in the passed resource stream. The format is: (priority level):(fully qualified component implementation name).

Parameters:

componentListStream - the stream to parse

Returns:

the list of component declaration (implementation class names and priorities)

Throws:

IOException - in case of an error loading the component list resource

Since:

3.3M1

getLogger

protected org.slf4j.Logger getLogger()

Useful for unit tests that need to capture logs; they can return a mock logger instead of the real logger and thus assert what's been logged.

Returns:

the Logger instance to use to log
