Interface Service

All Superinterfaces:

All Known Subinterfaces:

DefaultExpressionLanguageFactoryService

public interface Service
extends NamedObject

Defines a named service which is instantiated at the container level.

This interface is intended to be used to implement services that are common enough to make them available on the container so other Mule artifacts can make use of them without having to re-implement them.

Service implementations can implement lifecycle interfaces Startable and Stoppable. Lifecycle will be applied when the container is started/stopped.

Implementations may overload methods from the Service interface with @Inject and add any parameters to be resolved from the Mule application context. When such invocation is made, those injected parameters cannot be null.
