Method Detail

getFlowDefinition

public FlowDefinition getFlowDefinition(java.lang.String id)
                                 throws NoSuchFlowDefinitionException,
                                        FlowDefinitionConstructionException

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionLocator

Lookup the flow definition with the specified id.

Specified by:

getFlowDefinition in interface FlowDefinitionLocator

Parameters:

id - the flow definition identifier

Returns:

the flow definition

Throws:

NoSuchFlowDefinitionException - when the flow definition with the specified id does not exist

FlowDefinitionConstructionException - if there is a problem constructing the identified flow definition

containsFlowDefinition

public boolean containsFlowDefinition(java.lang.String flowId)

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Does this registry contain a flow with the given id? More specifically, is FlowDefinitionLocator.getFlowDefinition(String) able to obtain a flow definition instance for the given id? Will ask the parent registry if the flow cannot be found in this instance.

Specified by:

containsFlowDefinition in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Parameters:

flowId - the id of the flow to query

Returns:

whether a flow definition with the given id is registered

getFlowDefinitionCount

public int getFlowDefinitionCount()

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Returns the number of flow definitions registered in this registry.

Specified by:

getFlowDefinitionCount in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Returns:

the flow definition count

getFlowDefinitionIds

public java.lang.String[] getFlowDefinitionIds()

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Returns the ids of the flows registered in this registry.

Specified by:

getFlowDefinitionIds in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Returns:

the flow definition ids

getParent

public FlowDefinitionRegistry getParent()

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Returns this registry's parent registry.

Specified by:

getParent in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Returns:

the parent flow definition registry, or null if no parent is set

setParent

public void setParent(FlowDefinitionRegistry parent)

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Sets this registry's parent registry. When asked by a client to locate a flow definition this registry will query it's parent if it cannot fulfill the lookup request itself.

Specified by:

setParent in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Parameters:

parent - the parent flow definition registry, may be null

registerFlowDefinition

public void registerFlowDefinition(FlowDefinitionHolder definitionHolder)

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Register a flow definition in this registry. Registers a "holder", not the Flow definition itself. This allows the actual Flow definition to be loaded lazily only when needed, and also rebuilt at runtime when its underlying resource changes without re-deploy.

Specified by:

registerFlowDefinition in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Parameters:

definitionHolder - a holder holding the flow definition to register

registerFlowDefinition

public void registerFlowDefinition(FlowDefinition definition)

Description copied from interface: FlowDefinitionRegistry

Register a flow definition in this registry.

Specified by:

registerFlowDefinition in interface FlowDefinitionRegistry

Parameters:

definition - the actual flow definition

destroy

public void destroy()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
