| java.beans.beancontext | 
 Provides classes and interfaces relating to bean context. 
 | 
| Modifier and Type | Interface | Description | 
|---|---|---|
interface  | 
BeanContext
 The BeanContext acts a logical hierarchical container for JavaBeans. 
 | 
|
interface  | 
BeanContextServices
 The BeanContextServices interface provides a mechanism for a BeanContext
 to expose generic "services" to the BeanContextChild objects within. 
 | 
| Modifier and Type | Class | Description | 
|---|---|---|
class  | 
BeanContextChildSupport
 This is a general support class to provide support for implementing the
 BeanContextChild protocol. 
 | 
|
class  | 
BeanContextServicesSupport
 This helper class provides a utility implementation of the
 java.beans.beancontext.BeanContextServices interface. 
 | 
|
class  | 
BeanContextSupport
This helper class provides a utility implementation of the
 java.beans.beancontext.BeanContext interface. 
 | 
| Modifier and Type | Field | Description | 
|---|---|---|
BeanContextChild | 
BeanContextChildSupport.beanContextChildPeer
The  
BeanContext in which
 this BeanContextChild is nested. | 
| Modifier and Type | Method | Description | 
|---|---|---|
BeanContextChild | 
BeanContextChildSupport.getBeanContextChildPeer()
Gets the BeanContextChild associated with this
 BeanContextChildSupport. 
 | 
|
BeanContextChild | 
BeanContextProxy.getBeanContextProxy()
Gets the  
BeanContextChild (or subinterface)
 associated with this object. | 
|
protected static BeanContextChild | 
BeanContextSupport.getChildBeanContextChild(Object child)
Gets the BeanContextChild (if any) of the specified child 
 | 
| Modifier and Type | Method | Description | 
|---|---|---|
URL | 
BeanContextSupport.getResource(String name,
           BeanContextChild bcc)  | 
|
URL | 
BeanContext.getResource(String name,
           BeanContextChild bcc)
Analagous to  
java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource(), this
 method allows a BeanContext implementation to interpose
 behavior between the child Component
 and underlying ClassLoader. | 
|
InputStream | 
BeanContextSupport.getResourceAsStream(String name,
                   BeanContextChild bcc)  | 
|
InputStream | 
BeanContext.getResourceAsStream(String name,
                   BeanContextChild bcc)
Analagous to  
java.lang.ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(),
 this method allows a BeanContext implementation
 to interpose behavior between the child Component
 and underlying ClassLoader. | 
|
Object | 
BeanContextServicesSupport.getService(BeanContextChild child,
          Object requestor,
          Class serviceClass,
          Object serviceSelector,
          BeanContextServiceRevokedListener bcsrl)
obtain a service which may be delegated 
 | 
|
Object | 
BeanContextServices.getService(BeanContextChild child,
          Object requestor,
          Class serviceClass,
          Object serviceSelector,
          BeanContextServiceRevokedListener bcsrl)
A  
BeanContextChild, or any arbitrary object
 associated with a BeanContextChild, may obtain
 a reference to a currently registered service from its
 nesting BeanContextServices
 via invocation of this method. | 
|
void | 
BeanContextServicesSupport.releaseService(BeanContextChild child,
              Object requestor,
              Object service)
release a service 
 | 
|
void | 
BeanContextServices.releaseService(BeanContextChild child,
              Object requestor,
              Object service)
Releases a  
BeanContextChild's
 (or any arbitrary object associated with a BeanContextChild)
 reference to the specified service by calling releaseService()
 on the underlying BeanContextServiceProvider. | 
| Constructor | Description | 
|---|---|
BeanContextChildSupport(BeanContextChild bcc)
construct a BeanContextChildSupport where the JavaBean component
 itself implements BeanContextChild, and encapsulates this, delegating
 that interface to this implementation
