Uses of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.api

Subinterfaces of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.api

interface

ActiveDescriptor<T> An ActiveDescriptor contains information about a Descriptor after it has been reified.

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.api that return Descriptor

Descriptor	Descriptor.getBaseDescriptor() If this descriptor is based on another descriptor (for example via the Configuration bind call) then this method will return the original basis for this descriptor.
Descriptor	ErrorInformation.getDescriptor() This will contain the active descriptor that is associated with this failure.
Descriptor	FactoryDescriptors.getFactoryAsAFactory() This returns the factory as a factory for some other type.
Descriptor	FactoryDescriptors.getFactoryAsAService() This returns the factory as a service itself.

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.api with parameters of type Descriptor

<T> ActiveDescriptor<T>	DynamicConfiguration.bind(Descriptor key) This method will bind the given descriptor to this Module.
boolean	Filter.matches(Descriptor d) Returns true if this filter matches the given object
ActiveDescriptor<?>	ServiceLocator.reifyDescriptor(Descriptor descriptor) Converts a descriptor to an ActiveDescriptor.
ActiveDescriptor<?>	ServiceLocator.reifyDescriptor(Descriptor descriptor, Injectee injectee) Converts a descriptor to an ActiveDescriptor.

Uses of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.internal

Classes in org.glassfish.hk2.internal that implement Descriptor

class

ConstantActiveDescriptor<T>

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.internal that return Descriptor

Descriptor	FactoryDescriptorsImpl.getFactoryAsAFactory()
Descriptor	FactoryDescriptorsImpl.getFactoryAsAService()

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.internal with parameters of type Descriptor

boolean	StarFilter.matches(Descriptor d)
boolean	SpecificFilterImpl.matches(Descriptor d)
boolean	IndexedFilterImpl.matches(Descriptor d)

Uses of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities

Classes in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities that implement Descriptor

class	AbstractActiveDescriptor<T> This class can be used as a starting point for those writing their own ActiveDescriptor.
class	AliasDescriptor<T> A descriptor class that serves as an alias for another descriptor.
class	DescriptorImpl The implementation of the descriptor itself, with the bonus of being externalizable, and having writeable fields

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities that return Descriptor

Descriptor

DescriptorImpl.getBaseDescriptor()

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities with parameters of type Descriptor

static <T> ActiveDescriptor<T>	ServiceLocatorUtilities.addOneDescriptor(ServiceLocator locator, Descriptor descriptor) It is very often the case that one wishes to add a single descriptor to a service locator.
static IndexedFilter	BuilderHelper.createSpecificDescriptorFilter(Descriptor descriptor) This method creates a filter that will match one and only one descriptor.
static DescriptorImpl	BuilderHelper.deepCopyDescriptor(Descriptor copyMe) Makes a deep copy of the incoming descriptor
static <T> ActiveDescriptor<T>	ServiceLocatorUtilities.findOneDescriptor(ServiceLocator locator, Descriptor descriptor) Finds a descriptor in the given service locator.
static <T> T	ServiceLocatorUtilities.getService(ServiceLocator locator, Descriptor descriptor) Returns the service in this service locator given the current descriptor.
static void	DescriptorImpl.pretty(java.lang.StringBuffer sb, Descriptor d) Will pretty print a descriptor
static void	ServiceLocatorUtilities.removeOneDescriptor(ServiceLocator locator, Descriptor descriptor) This method will attempt to remove descriptors matching the passed in descriptor from the given locator.
void	DescriptorImpl.setBaseDescriptor(Descriptor baseDescriptor) Sets the base descriptor to be associated with this descriptor

Constructors in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities with parameters of type Descriptor

AbstractActiveDescriptor(Descriptor baseDescriptor)
Creates a NON reified ActiveDescriptor based on a copy of the given baseDescriptor.

DescriptorImpl(Descriptor copyMe)
Does a deep copy of the incoming descriptor

DescriptorImpl(java.util.Set<java.lang.String> contracts, java.lang.String name, java.lang.String scope, java.lang.String implementation, java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.util.List<java.lang.String>> metadatas, java.util.Set<java.lang.String> qualifiers, DescriptorType descriptorType, DescriptorVisibility descriptorVisibility, HK2Loader loader, int rank, java.lang.Boolean proxiable, Descriptor baseDescriptor, java.lang.Long id, java.lang.Long locatorId)
This creates this descriptor impl, taking all of the fields as given

Uses of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities.binding

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.utilities.binding with parameters of type Descriptor

<T> ActiveDescriptor<T>

AbstractBinder.bind(Descriptor descriptor) This method will bind the given descriptor to this Module.
