Method Details

getCurrentServiceSelectors

public Iterator<E> getCurrentServiceSelectors(BeanContextServices bcs,
                                           Class<T> serviceClass)
Get a list of valid service selectors for the specified service class. This method is called from BeanContextServices.getCurrentServiceSelectors().

If the specified service class does not have a finite number of valid service selectors, it should return null. If it takes a general Integer parameter, for example, you may as well return null or the poor soul who called this method will be iterating all day.

If it has no valid service selectors, it should still return an empty Iterator.

Specified by:
getCurrentServiceSelectors in interface BeanContextServiceProvider
Parameters:
serviceClass - the service class to get selectors for.
Returns:
a list of valid service selectors for the service class, or null.

getService

public Object getService(BeanContextServices bcs,
                         Object requestor,
                         Class<T> serviceClass,
                         Object serviceSelector)
Get a service. Called from BeanContextServices.getService().

If the requested service class is not available, or if this BeanContextServiceProvider chooses not honor the request for some reason, then this method will return null. This method may throw unchecked exceptions, so watch out.

Specified by:
getService in interface BeanContextServiceProvider
Parameters:
requestor - the actual requestor of the service. Only weak references to this will be retained, and it will never be changed, only queried in a read-only manner.
serviceClass - the Class of the service being requested.
serviceSelector - a parameter to customize the service returned with.
Returns:
an instance of serviceClass (such that instanceof serviceClass is true), or null.

releaseService

public void releaseService(BeanContextServices bcs,
                           Object requestor,
                           Object service)
Release the service.

Called by BeanContextServices.releaseService().

Most BeanContextServiceProviders won't have to do anything here.

Specified by:
releaseService in interface BeanContextServiceProvider
Parameters:
requestor - the original requestor of the service.
service - the service to relinquish

serviceRevoked

public void serviceRevoked(BeanContextServiceRevokedEvent bcsre)
Called by BeanContextServices.revokeService() to indicate that a service has been revoked. If you have a reference to such a service, it should be discarded and may no longer function properly. getService() will no longer work on the specified service class after this event has been fired.
Specified by:
serviceRevoked in interface BeanContextServiceRevokedListener
