Interface DownloadServlet.ContentSource

All Known Implementing Classes:

ClientStubsContentSource, LBConfigContentSource, LogFilesContentSource

Enclosing class:

DownloadServlet

public static interface DownloadServlet.ContentSource

Implement this interface to provide an Object that is capable of providing data to DownloadServlet. ContentSource implementations must be thread safe. The DownloadServlet will reuse the same instance when 2 requests are made to the same ContentSource type. Instance variables, therefore, should not be used; you may use the context to store local information.
