Interface WebAppAccessConsumer

All Known Implementing Classes:

BeanCollectionDataRetriever, CustomDataRetriever

public interface WebAppAccessConsumer

Marker interface defining builer objects which require a WebAppAccess instance to complete their work (typically because they need to access WebApp resources such as Variables and Methods at runtime). The contract between the client and the object implementing this interface is as follows: The client will first call the setWebAppAccess(...) method on the object to provide the WebAppAccess instance to be used in the execution of other methods implemented by the object. The client will then call one or more additional methods on the object. Finally, the client will call setWebAppAccess( null ) to disassociate the object from the previously provided WebAppAccess instance. Note that the WebAppAccess instance may initially be set to null if a WebAppAccess is not available to the client; the object implementing this interface must take this into account.

Method Summary

void	setWebAppAccess(WebAppAccess webAppAccess) Associate or disassociate a specific WebAppAccess instance with the object implementing this interface.
