Method Summary

DConfigBeanRoot	getDConfigBeanRoot(DDBeanRoot bean) Returns the top level configuration bean, DConfigBeanRoot, associated with the deployment descriptor represented by the designated DDBeanRoot bean.
DeployableObject	getDeployableObject() Returns an object that provides access to the deployment descriptor data and classes of a J2EE module.
void	removeDConfigBean(DConfigBeanRoot bean) Remove the root DConfigBean and all its children.
void	restore(InputStream inputArchive) Restore from disk to a full set of configuration beans previously stored.
DConfigBeanRoot	restoreDConfigBean(InputStream inputArchive, DDBeanRoot bean) Restore from disk to instantated objects all the DConfigBeans associated with a specific deployment descriptor.
void	save(OutputStream outputArchive) Save to disk the current set configuration beans created for this deployable module.
void	saveDConfigBean(OutputStream outputArchive, DConfigBeanRoot bean) Save to disk all the configuration beans associated with a particular deployment descriptor file.

Method Detail

getDeployableObject

DeployableObject getDeployableObject()

Returns an object that provides access to the deployment descriptor data and classes of a J2EE module.

Returns:

A DeployableObject

getDConfigBeanRoot

DConfigBeanRoot getDConfigBeanRoot(DDBeanRoot bean)
                                   throws ConfigurationException

Returns the top level configuration bean, DConfigBeanRoot, associated with the deployment descriptor represented by the designated DDBeanRoot bean.

Parameters:

bean - The top level bean that represents the associated deployment descriptor.

Returns:

the DConfigBeanRoot for editing the server-specific properties required by the module.

Throws:

ConfigurationException - reports errors in generating a configuration bean

removeDConfigBean

void removeDConfigBean(DConfigBeanRoot bean)
                       throws BeanNotFoundException

Remove the root DConfigBean and all its children.

Parameters:

bean - the top leve DConfigBean to remove.

Throws:

BeanNotFoundException - the bean provided is not in this beans child list.

restoreDConfigBean

DConfigBeanRoot restoreDConfigBean(InputStream inputArchive,
                                   DDBeanRoot bean)
                                   throws ConfigurationException

Restore from disk to instantated objects all the DConfigBeans associated with a specific deployment descriptor. The beans may be fully or partially configured.

Parameters:

inputArchive - The input stream for the file from which the DConfigBeans should be restored.

bean - The DDBeanRoot bean associated with the deployment descriptor file.

Returns:

The top most parent configuration bean, DConfigBeanRoot

Throws:

ConfigurationException - reports errors in generating a configuration bean

saveDConfigBean

void saveDConfigBean(OutputStream outputArchive,
                     DConfigBeanRoot bean)
                     throws ConfigurationException

Save to disk all the configuration beans associated with a particular deployment descriptor file. The saved data may be fully or partially configured DConfigBeans. The output file format is recommended to be XML.

Parameters:

outputArchive - The output stream to which the DConfigBeans should be saved.

bean - The top level bean, DConfigBeanRoot, from which to be save.

Throws:

ConfigurationException - reports errors in storing a configuration bean

restore

void restore(InputStream inputArchive)
             throws ConfigurationException

Restore from disk to a full set of configuration beans previously stored.

Parameters:

inputArchive - The input stream from which to restore the Configuration.

Throws:

ConfigurationException - reports errors in generating a configuration bean

save

void save(OutputStream outputArchive)
          throws ConfigurationException

Save to disk the current set configuration beans created for this deployable module. It is recommended the file format be XML.

Parameters:

outputArchive - The output stream to which to save the Configuration.

Throws:

ConfigurationException - reports errors in storing a configuration bean
