All Known Implementing Classes:

ClassPathImpl

public interface IClassPath

A classpath from which resources (classes and other files) may be loaded. Essentially, this is just a list of codebases.

Method Summary

void	addCodeBase(ICodeBase codeBase) Add a codebase.
java.util.Iterator<? extends ICodeBase>	appCodeBaseIterator() Return an iterator over the application codebases.
java.util.Iterator<? extends ICodeBase>	auxCodeBaseIterator() Return an iterator over the auxiliary codebases.
void	close() Close all of the code bases that are part of this class path.
ICodeBaseEntry	lookupResource(java.lang.String resourceName) Lookup a resource by name.
void	mapResourceNameToCodeBaseEntry(java.lang.String resourceName, ICodeBaseEntry codeBaseEntry) Add a resource name to codebase entry mapping.

Method Detail

addCodeBase

void addCodeBase(ICodeBase codeBase)

Add a codebase. The object will be interrogated to determine whether it is an application codebase or an auxiliary codebase. Application codebases must be scannable.

Parameters:

codeBase - the codebase to add

appCodeBaseIterator

java.util.Iterator<? extends ICodeBase> appCodeBaseIterator()

Return an iterator over the application codebases.

Returns:

iterator over the application codebases

auxCodeBaseIterator

java.util.Iterator<? extends ICodeBase> auxCodeBaseIterator()

Return an iterator over the auxiliary codebases.

Returns:

iterator over the auxiliary codebases

lookupResource

ICodeBaseEntry lookupResource(java.lang.String resourceName)
                              throws ResourceNotFoundException

Lookup a resource by name.

Parameters:

resourceName - name of the resource to look up

Returns:

ICodeBaseEntry representing the resource

Throws:

ResourceNotFoundException - if the resource is not found

mapResourceNameToCodeBaseEntry

void mapResourceNameToCodeBaseEntry(java.lang.String resourceName,
                                    ICodeBaseEntry codeBaseEntry)

Add a resource name to codebase entry mapping. Once this is done, future lookups of this resource will automatically resolve to the given codebase entry.

Parameters:

resourceName - the resource name to map

codeBaseEntry - the codebase entry to use for this resource

close

void close()

Close all of the code bases that are part of this class path. This should be done once the client is finished with the classpath.
