public interface NamingContext

extends NamingContextOperations, Object, IDLEntity

The interface for the naming context. The naming context can store (bound) and retrieve (resolve) the named objects or named child contexts. These operations are defined in a separate interface.

See Also:: NamingContextExt

Method Summary
`void`	`bind(NameComponent[] a_name, Object an_object)` Gives the object a name, valid in this context.
`void`	`bind_context(NameComponent[] a_name, NamingContext a_context)` Gives a child context name, valid in this context.
`NamingContext`	`bind_new_context(NameComponent[] a_name)` Create a new context and give it a given name (bound it) in the current context.
`void`	`destroy()` Destroy this context (must be empty).
`void`	`list(int amount, BindingListHolder a_list, BindingIteratorHolder an_iter)` Iterate over all bindings, defined in this namind context.
`NamingContext`	`new_context()` Creates a new naming context, not bound to any name.
`void`	`rebind(NameComponent[] a_name, Object an_object)` Names or renames the object.
`void`	`rebind_context(NameComponent[] a_name, NamingContext a_context)` Names or renames the child context.
`Object`	`resolve(NameComponent[] a_name)` Get the object, bound to the specified name in this context.
`void`	`unbind(NameComponent[] a_name)` Removes the name from the binding context.

bind

public void bind(NameComponent[] a_name,
                 Object an_object)
            throws NotFound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName,
                   AlreadyBound

Gives the object a name, valid in this context.
Specified by:
bind in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
a_name - the name, being given to the object.
an_object - the object, being named.
Throws:
AlreadyBound - if the object is already named in this context.
InvalidName - if the name has zero length or otherwise invalid.

bind_context

public void bind_context(NameComponent[] a_name,
                         NamingContext a_context)
            throws NotFound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName,
                   AlreadyBound

Gives a child context name, valid in this context.
Specified by:
bind_context in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
a_name - the name, being given to the child context.
a_context - the child context being named.
Throws:
AlreadyBound - if the child context is already named in the current context.

bind_new_context

public NamingContext bind_new_context(NameComponent[] a_name)
            throws NotFound,
                   AlreadyBound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName

Create a new context and give it a given name (bound it) in the current context.
Specified by:
bind_new_context in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
a_name - the name being given to the new context.
Returns:
the newly created context.
Throws:
AlreadyBound - if the name is already in use.
InvalidName - if the name has zero length or otherwise invalid.

destroy

public void destroy()
            throws NotEmpty

Destroy this context (must be empty).
Specified by:
destroy in interface NamingContextOperations
Throws:
NotEmpty - if the context being destroyed is not empty.

list

public void list(int amount,
                 BindingListHolder a_list,
                 BindingIteratorHolder an_iter)

Iterate over all bindings, defined in this namind context.
Specified by:
list in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
amount - the maximal number of context to return in the holder a_list. The remaining bindings are accessible via iterator an_iter. If the parameter amount is zero, all bindings are accessed only via this iterator.
a_list - the holder, where the returned bindigs are stored.
an_iter - the iterator that can be used to access the remaining bindings.

new_context

public NamingContext new_context()

Creates a new naming context, not bound to any name.
Specified by:
new_context in interface NamingContextOperations

rebind

public void rebind(NameComponent[] a_name,
                   Object an_object)
            throws NotFound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName

Names or renames the object.
Specified by:
rebind in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
a_name - the new name, being given to the object. If the object is already named in this context, it is renamed.
an_object - the object, being named.
Throws:
InvalidName - if the name has zero length or otherwise invalid.

rebind_context

public void rebind_context(NameComponent[] a_name,
                           NamingContext a_context)
            throws NotFound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName

Names or renames the child context. If the child context is already named in the current context, it is renamed.
Specified by:
rebind_context in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
a_name - the name, being given to the child context.
a_context - the child context being named.
Throws:
InvalidName - if the name has zero length or otherwise invalid.

resolve

public Object resolve(NameComponent[] a_name)
            throws NotFound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName

Get the object, bound to the specified name in this context.
Specified by:
resolve in interface NamingContextOperations
Parameters:
a_name - the object name.
Returns:
the object, matching this name. The client usually casts or narrows (using the helper) the returned value to the more specific type.
Throws:
NotFound -
InvalidName - if the name has zero length or otherwise invalid.

unbind

public void unbind(NameComponent[] a_name)
            throws NotFound,
                   CannotProceed,
                   InvalidName
