Interface DistributedReadOnlyBeanService

public interface DistributedReadOnlyBeanService

DistributedReadOnlyBeanService defines the methods that can be used to implement a distributed ReadOnly beans. An instance of ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler is used to handle requests received from other server instances. An instance of DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier is used to notify other server instances.

Method Summary

void	addReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler(long ejbID, java.lang.ClassLoader loader, ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler handler) Called from ReadOnlyBeanContainer to register itself as a ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler.
void	handleRefreshAllRequest(long ejbID) Called from the DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier when it receives a (remote) request to refresh all RO beans
void	handleRefreshRequest(long ejbID, byte[] pkData) Called from the DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier when it receives a (remote) request to refresh a RO bean
void	notifyRefresh(long ejbID, java.lang.Object pk) Called by the container after it has refreshed the RO bean
void	notifyRefreshAll(long ejbID) Called by the container after it has refreshed all RO beans
void	removeReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler(long ejbID) Called from ReadOnlyBeanContainer to unregister itself as a ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler.
void	setDistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier(DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier notifier) This is typically done during appserver startup time.

Method Detail

setDistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier

void setDistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier(DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier notifier)

This is typically done during appserver startup time. One of the LifeCycle listeners will create an instance of DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier and register that instance with DistributedReadOnlyBeanService

Parameters:

notifier - the notifier who is responsible for notifying refresh event(s) to other instances

addReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler

void addReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler(long ejbID,
                                        java.lang.ClassLoader loader,
                                        ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler handler)

Called from ReadOnlyBeanContainer to register itself as a ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler.

Parameters:

ejbID - the ejbID that uniquely identifies the container

loader - the class loader that will be used to serialize/de-serialize the primary key

handler - The handler that is responsible for correctly refresing the state of a RO bean

removeReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler

void removeReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler(long ejbID)

Called from ReadOnlyBeanContainer to unregister itself as a ReadOnlyBeanRefreshEventHandler. Typically called during undeployment.

Parameters:

ejbID -

notifyRefresh

void notifyRefresh(long ejbID,
                   java.lang.Object pk)

Called by the container after it has refreshed the RO bean

Parameters:

ejbID - the ejbID that uniquely identifies the container

pk - the primary key to be refreshed

notifyRefreshAll

void notifyRefreshAll(long ejbID)

Called by the container after it has refreshed all RO beans

Parameters:

ejbID - the ejbID that uniquely identifies the container

handleRefreshRequest

void handleRefreshRequest(long ejbID,
                          byte[] pkData)

Called from the DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier when it receives a (remote) request to refresh a RO bean

Parameters:

ejbID - the ejbID that uniquely identifies the container

pk - the primary key to be refreshed

handleRefreshAllRequest

void handleRefreshAllRequest(long ejbID)

Called from the DistributedReadOnlyBeanNotifier when it receives a (remote) request to refresh all RO beans

Parameters:

ejbID - the ejbID that uniquely identifies the container
