Class ScatteredEnterpriseArchive

java.lang.Object
  org.glassfish.embeddable.archive.ScatteredEnterpriseArchive

public class ScatteredEnterpriseArchive
extends Object

Abstraction for a Scattered Java EE Application.

Usage example :

         GlassFish glassfish = GlassFishRuntime.bootstrap().newGlassFish();
         glassfish.start();
 
         // Create a scattered web application.
         ScatteredArchive webmodule = new ScatteredArchive("testweb", ScatteredArchive.Type.WAR);
         // target/classes directory contains my complied servlets
         webmodule.addClassPath(new File("target", "classes"));
         // resources/sun-web.xml is my WEB-INF/sun-web.xml
         webmodule.addMetadata(new File("resources", "sun-web.xml"));
 
         // Create a scattered enterprise archive.
         ScatteredEnterpriseArchive archive = new ScatteredEnterpriseArchive("testapp");
         // src/application.xml is my META-INF/application.xml
         archive.addMetadata(new File("src", "application.xml"));
         // Add scattered web module to the scattered enterprise archive.
         // src/application.xml references Web module as "scattered.war". Hence specify the name while adding the archive.
         archive.addArchive(webmodule.toURI(), "scattered.war");
         // lib/mylibrary.jar is a library JAR file.
         archive.addArchive(new File("lib", "mylibrary.jar"));
         // target/ejbclasses contain my compiled EJB module.
         // src/application.xml references EJB module as "ejb.jar". Hence specify the name while adding the archive.
         archive.addArchive(new File("target", "ejbclasses"), "ejb.jar");
 
         Deployer deployer = glassfish.getDeployer();
         // Deploy my scattered web application
         deployer.deploy(webmodule.toURI());

Constructor Detail

ScatteredEnterpriseArchive

public ScatteredEnterpriseArchive(String name)

Construct a new scattered enterprise archive.

Parameters:

name - Name of the enterprise archive.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if name is null.

Method Detail

addArchive

public void addArchive(URI archiveURI)
                throws IOException

Add a module or a library to this scattered enterprise archive.

The addArchive(archiveURI) method has the same effect as:

      addMetadata(archiveURI, null)
 

Follows the same semantics as addArchive(URI, String) method.

Throws:

IOException

addArchive

public void addArchive(URI archiveURI,
                       String name)
                throws IOException

Add a module or a library to this scattered enterprise archive.

The specified archiveURI must be one of the following:

      ScatteredArchive URI obtained via ScatteredArchive.toURI().
      Location of a library JAR file. Must be a File URI.
      Location of a Java EE module. Must be a File URI.
 

If the specified name is null, then the name is computed as the name of the File as located by archiveURI.

Parameters:

archiveURI - Module or library archive URI.

name - name of the module/library as specified in META-INF/application.xml

Throws:

NullPointerException - if archiveURI is null

IOException - if the archiveURI location is not found.

addArchive

public void addArchive(File archive)
                throws IOException

Add a module or a library to this scattered enterprise archive.

The addArchive(archive) method has the same effect as:

      addArchive(archive, null)
 

Follows the same semantics as addArchive(File, String) method.

Throws:

IOException

addArchive

public void addArchive(File archive,
                       String name)
                throws IOException

Add a module or a library to this scattered enterprise archive.

The specified archive location should be one of the following:

      Location of a library JAR file.
      Location of a Java EE module.
 

If the specified name is null, then the name is computed as archive.getName()

Parameters:

archive - Location of module or library archive.

name - name of the module/library as specified in META-INF/application.xml

Throws:

NullPointerException - if archive is null

IOException - if the archive file is not found

addMetadata

public void addMetadata(File metadata)
                 throws IOException

Add a new metadata to this scattered enterprise archive.

The addMetadata(metadata) method has the same effect as:

      addMetadata(metadata, null)
 

Follows the same semantics as addMetadata(File, String) method.

Throws:

IOException

addMetadata

public void addMetadata(File metadata,
                        String name)
                 throws IOException

Add a new metadata to this enterprise archive.

A metadata is identified by its name (e.g., META-INF/application.xml) If the specified name is null, then the name is computed as "META-INF/" + metadata.getName()

If the scattered enterprise archive already contains the metadata with the same name, the old value is replaced.

Parameters:

metadata - location of metdata.

name - name of the metadata (e.g., META-INF/application.xml)

Throws:

NullPointerException - if metadata is null

IOException - if metadata is not found

IllegalArgumentException - if metadata is a directory.

toURI

public URI toURI()
          throws IOException

Get the deployable URI for this scattered enterprise archive.

Note : java.io.tmpdir is used while building the URI.

Returns:

Deployable scattered enterprise Archive URI.

Throws:

IOException - if any I/O error happens while building the URI or while reading metadata, archives.
