Constructor Detail

ManagerSubconfiguration

public ManagerSubconfiguration(String prefix)

Method Detail

setDefaultProperties

public void setDefaultProperties(Map props)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Sets the default properties for this component. This allows a configured object to set its default values which are used by the configuration implementation. The keys and values of the map passed as argument are supposed to be String.

Specified by:

setDefaultProperties in interface Subconfiguration

getProperty

public String getProperty(String name)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Returns the values for the given name or null if there's none.

Specified by:

getProperty in interface Subconfiguration

getPath

public URL getPath(String name)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Computes the path of the given properties according to ActiveMath's mechanism (using a possible extra <name>.refType property.

Specified by:

getPath in interface Subconfiguration

See Also:

Manager.getPath(java.lang.String)

pathFromString

public URL pathFromString(String pathString)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Computes the path for the obtained property value.

Specified by:

pathFromString in interface Subconfiguration

getBoolean

public boolean getBoolean(String name)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Tries to compute the boolean value of the value of the given property.

Specified by:

getBoolean in interface Subconfiguration

getInt

public int getInt(String name)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Tries to compute the integer value of the value of the given property.

Specified by:

getInt in interface Subconfiguration

getService

public Object getService(String serviceInterfaceClassName)

This method returns a service implementing one of the following interfaces:

• MBaseRef is provided by Manager.getOfficialMBase()
• AbstractUserModel is provided by Manager#getUserModel
• MathWebBrokerWrapper is provided by Manager.getMathWebBroker()
• de.marf.crypt.identities.PermanentIdenticator is provided by Manager#getPermanentIdenticator.
• Random is provided by Manager#getSecureRandom().
• Stylesheets is provided by Manager.getStylesheetProcessor()
• ConfiguredObjectMaker is provided by an internal wrapper of the Manager.createConfiguredObject(org.activemath.abstractcontent.Subconfiguration) method

If none of these match, it will return one configured as in SubconfImpl.PropertiesConfig. This method will offer more objects as it's life goes on allowing the ability to remove entirely the static references to the Manager class thus making implementations using this class presumably portable in different settings (e.g. using a simple xml or properties file).

Specified by:

getService in interface Subconfiguration

Returns:

an object of a class implementing the service-interface-class.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the service indicated does not exist

refreshServices

public void refreshServices()

does nothing

Specified by:

refreshServices in interface Subconfiguration

getPropertyNames

public Iterator getPropertyNames()

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Returns an enumeration of all the property names.

Specified by:

getPropertyNames in interface Subconfiguration

getChildrenNames

public Collection getChildrenNames(String subPrefix)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Returns the next step completion given the named prefix.

As an example, given

    i.a.blop.c = val1

    i.b.blip   = val2

 

This method, called with "i", would return the enumeration made of the string "a" and the string "b".

Specified by:

getChildrenNames in interface Subconfiguration

Parameters:

subPrefix - the prefix string, without the trailing "." or null if the root property names is wished.

getSubconfiguration

public Subconfiguration getSubconfiguration(String prefix)

Description copied from interface: Subconfiguration

Creates a sub-configuration object with the properties with given prefix.

Specified by:

getSubconfiguration in interface Subconfiguration

Parameters:

prefix - the prefix string, without the trailing "."
