Interface LoginInfoStore

All Known Implementing Classes:
MemoryHashLoginInfoStore

public interface LoginInfoStore
An interface that represents the database of LoginInfo objects. Provides methods to access and mutate the store. The general contract of store update comprises of the following:
  • The store can contain at the most one LoginInfo for a host and port combination
  • There is no guarantee that concurrent modification of this store by two different programs will always be consistent.
Since:
Appserver 9.0

  • Method Details

    • read

      LoginInfo read(String host, int port) throws StoreException
      Returns a LoginInfo corresponding to the given host and port, from this store. The host may not be null. For a given host and port, there can be at most one LoginInfo in this store.
      Parameters:
      host - a non null String representing host name
      port - an integer specifying the port number
      Returns:
      the corresponding LoginInfo, null if there is none
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there is something wrong with reading the store
      IllegalArgumentException - if the parameter host is null
    • remove

      void remove(String host, int port) throws StoreException
      Removes the LoginInfo corresponding to the given host and port, from this store. The host may not be null. If no such LoginInfo exists, StoreException results. The caller thus must ensure if such a LoginInfo exists before calling this method. Upon successful return, size of this store decreases by one.
      Parameters:
      host - a non null String representing host name
      port - an integer specifying the port number
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there is something wrong with reading the store or if there is no such LoginInfo
      IllegalArgumentException - if the parameter host is null
    • store

      void store(LoginInfo login) throws StoreException
      Stores the given LoginInfo in this store. Given LoginInfo may not be null. Upon successful return, the size of this store increases by one. An exception is thrown if there is already a LoginInfo with given host and port.
      Parameters:
      login - a LoginInfo that needs to be stored
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there's any problem or if there is already a LoginInfo with given host and port
      IllegalArgumentException - if the given LoginInfo is null
    • store

      void store(LoginInfo login, boolean overwrite) throws StoreException
      Stores the given LoginInfo in this store. Given LoginInfo may not be null. Upon successful return, the size of this store increases by one. An exception is thrown if there is already a LoginInfo with given host and port and overwrite is false. If overwrite is true, the given LoginInfo is stored regardless of whether it already exists in this store. Depending upon the value of overwrite, the store is either unchanged or not.
      Parameters:
      login - a LoginInfo that needs to be stored
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there's any problem in storing or if overwrite is false and the LoginInfo with given host and port already exists
      IllegalArgumentException - if the given LoginInfo is null
    • exists

      boolean exists(String host, int port) throws StoreException
      Checks whether a LoginInfo for given host and port exists in this store.
      Parameters:
      host - a non null String representing host name
      port - an integer specifying the port number
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there's any problem reading the store
    • list

      A convenience method that returns the Collection of LoginInfo instances stored in this store. An empty Collection is returned when there are no LoginInfo items stored.
      Returns:
      the Collection of LoginInfo instances
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there's any problem reading the store
    • size

      int size() throws StoreException
      A convenience method that returns the number of LoginInfo instances stored in this store. Zero is returned when no login information is stored.
      Returns:
      an integer representing number of stored login information elements, 0 if none
      Throws:
      StoreException - if there's any problem reading the store
    • getName

      String getName()
      Returns the name of the store. This is any name that the store implementation wants to use for identification, for instance.
