Class AuditProvider

java.lang.Object
  oracle.jdeveloper.audit.AuditProvider

Direct Known Subclasses:

AbstractAuditAddin

public abstract class AuditProvider
extends java.lang.Object

A provider of Audit extension components. A provider can provide any of the following:

• bean customizers
.
• default style sheets
.

IDE extensions which extend Audit must register a provider with the AuditManager at startup. As Audit needs components, it queries the registered providers and creates the components that they indicate.

AuditProvider is essentially a callback interface. Audit gets components through this callback, rather than having extensions instantiate and register them individually, so that class and file loading and object creation can be deferred as late as possible (in particular, until after IDE startup).

NOTE: The Audit API will be shifting somewhat to take advantage of the extension mechanism introduced in 10.1.3. My expectation is that this class will become superfluous, replaced by equivalent (Audit-specific) declarations in the extension XML file.
