Interface FeatureModelConfigurator

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractFeatureModelConfigurator

public interface FeatureModelConfigurator

FeatureModelConfigurators are used by the feature model to choose between alternative implementations of FeatureFactories, FeatureConstructorFactories, FeatureActionFactories. A configurator can also disable particular FeatureSets, FeatureActions, FeatureConstructors.

Method Summary

com.sun.java.util.collections.Set	getSupportedFeatureTypes() A configurator is only interested in a subset of all feature types.
boolean	isDefaultFeatureConstructor(Feature parent, java.lang.String childType, FeatureConstructor constructor) The configurator can veto the choice of a particular constructor as the default one.
boolean	isFeatureActionEnabled(Feature feature, FeatureAction action) The configurator can disable a specific feature action.
boolean	isFeatureActionFactoryEnabled(Feature feature, FeatureActionFactory factory) The configurator can veto action allocation by a factory.
boolean	isFeatureConstructorEnabled(Feature parent, java.lang.String childType, FeatureConstructor constructor) The configurator can veto the use of a particular constructor.
boolean	isFeatureConstructorFactoryEnabled(Feature parent, java.lang.String childType, FeatureConstructorFactory factory) The configurator can veto feature constructor allocation by a factory
boolean	isFeatureFactoryEnabled(Feature parent, java.lang.String type, FeatureFactory factory) The configurator can veto the use of a particular feature factory
boolean	isFeatureRecognitionEnabled(Feature parent, java.net.URL url, FeatureFactory factory) The configurator can veto feature recognition by a feature set associated with a particular feature factory.

Method Detail

getSupportedFeatureTypes

public com.sun.java.util.collections.Set getSupportedFeatureTypes()

A configurator is only interested in a subset of all feature types. That subset is returned by this method.

isFeatureFactoryEnabled

public boolean isFeatureFactoryEnabled(Feature parent,
                                       java.lang.String type,
                                       FeatureFactory factory)

The configurator can veto the use of a particular feature factory

isFeatureRecognitionEnabled

public boolean isFeatureRecognitionEnabled(Feature parent,
                                           java.net.URL url,
                                           FeatureFactory factory)

The configurator can veto feature recognition by a feature set associated with a particular feature factory.

isFeatureConstructorFactoryEnabled

public boolean isFeatureConstructorFactoryEnabled(Feature parent,
                                                  java.lang.String childType,
                                                  FeatureConstructorFactory factory)

The configurator can veto feature constructor allocation by a factory

isFeatureConstructorEnabled

public boolean isFeatureConstructorEnabled(Feature parent,
                                           java.lang.String childType,
                                           FeatureConstructor constructor)

The configurator can veto the use of a particular constructor.

isDefaultFeatureConstructor

public boolean isDefaultFeatureConstructor(Feature parent,
                                           java.lang.String childType,
                                           FeatureConstructor constructor)

The configurator can veto the choice of a particular constructor as the default one.

isFeatureActionFactoryEnabled

public boolean isFeatureActionFactoryEnabled(Feature feature,
                                             FeatureActionFactory factory)

The configurator can veto action allocation by a factory.

isFeatureActionEnabled

public boolean isFeatureActionEnabled(Feature feature,
                                      FeatureAction action)

The configurator can disable a specific feature action.
