Class RelationSupport

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--javax.management.relation.RelationSupport
All Implemented Interfaces:
MBeanRegistration, Relation, RelationSupportMBean

public class RelationSupport
extends java.lang.Object
implements RelationSupportMBean, MBeanRegistration

A RelationSupport object is used internally by the Relation Service to represent simple relations (only roles, no properties or methods), with an unlimited number of roles, of any relation type. As internal representation, it is not exposed to the user.

RelationSupport class conforms to the design patterns of standard MBean. So the user can decide to instantiate a RelationSupport object himself as a MBean (as it follows the MBean design patterns), to register it in the MBean Server, and then to add it in the Relation Service.

The user can also, when creating his own MBean relation class, have it extending RelationSupport, to retrieve the implementations of required interfaces (see below).

It is also possible to have in a user relation MBean class a member being a RelationSupport object, and to implement the required interfaces by delegating all to this member.

RelationSupport implements the Relation interface (to be handled by the Relation Service).

It implements also the MBeanRegistration interface to be able to retrieve the MBean Server where it is registered (if registered as a MBean) to access to its Relation Service.

Constructor Detail

RelationSupport

public RelationSupport(java.lang.String relationId,
                       ObjectName relationServiceObjectName,
                       java.lang.String relationTypeName,
                       RoleList roleList)
                throws InvalidRoleValueException,
                       java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
Creates object.

This constructor has to be used when the RelationSupport object will be registered as a MBean by the user, or when creating a user relation MBean those class extends RelationSupport.

Nothing is done at the Relation Service level, i.e. the RelationSupport object is not added, and no check if the provided values are correct. The object is always created, EXCEPT if:

- one mandatory parameter is not provided

- the same name is used for two roles.

To be handled as a relation, the object has then to be added in the Relation Service using Relation Service method addRelation().

Parameters:
relationId - relation identifier, to identify the relation in the Relation Service.

Expected to be unique in the given Relation Service.

relationServiceObjectName - ObjectName of the Relation Service where the relation will be registered.

It is required as this is the Relation Service that is aware of the definition of the relation type of given relation, so that will be able to check update operations (set).

relationTypeName - Name of relation type.

Expected to have been created in given Relation Service.

roleList - list of roles (Role objects) to initialised the relation. Can be null.

Expected to conform to relation info in associated relation type.

Throws:
InvalidRoleValueException - if the same name is used for two roles.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if a required value (Relation Service Object Name, etc.) is not provided as parameter.

Description copied from interface: MBeanRegistration
