Interface RegistryDefinition

All Known Implementing Classes:

RegistryDefinitionImpl

public interface RegistryDefinition

Defines all modules and their service and configuration points which build a registry. The definition is a blueprint from which a registry instance is constructed. The definition is passed to RegistryBuilder for the next phase: the registry construction. From that moment on the definition shouldn't be changed any longer.

Method Detail

addModule

void addModule(ModuleDefinition module)
               throws ApplicationRuntimeException

Adds a module definition.

Parameters:

module - the module

Throws:

ApplicationRuntimeException - if another module with the same id already exists.

getModules

java.util.Collection getModules()

Returns:

a collection of all added modules

getModule

ModuleDefinition getModule(java.lang.String id)

Returns a module that is identified by its module id.

Parameters:

id - the module id

Returns:

the module

addPostProcessor

void addPostProcessor(RegistryDefinitionPostProcessor postProcessor)

Adds a RegistryDefinitionPostProcessor. The processor is called after all module definitions have been processed.

Parameters:

postProcessor - the processor

getPostProcessors

Returns:

a collection of all registered RegistryDefinitionPostProcessors

addRegistryInitializationListener

void addRegistryInitializationListener(RegistryInitializationListener listener)

Adds a RegistryInitializationListener which is called after the construction of the registry.

Parameters:

listener - the listener

getRegistryInitializationListeners

java.util.List getRegistryInitializationListeners()

Returns:

a collection of all registered RegistryInitializationListeners

getServicePoint

ServicePointDefinition getServicePoint(java.lang.String qualifiedServicePointId)

Returns a service point that is identified by its id.

Parameters:

qualifiedServicePointId - the fully qualified service point id

Returns:

the service point definition

getConfigurationPoint

ConfigurationPointDefinition getConfigurationPoint(java.lang.String qualifiedConfigurationPointId)

Returns a configuration point that is identified by its id.

Parameters:

qualifiedConfigurationPointId - the fully qualified configuration point id

Returns:

the configuration point definition
