Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
javax.jbi.servicedesc.ServiceEndpoint[]	resolveAvailableEndpoints(javax.jbi.component.ComponentContext context, javax.jbi.messaging.MessageExchange exchange) Resolves all the available endpoints which may not be applicable to a component.
javax.jbi.servicedesc.ServiceEndpoint	resolveEndpoint(javax.jbi.component.ComponentContext context, javax.jbi.messaging.MessageExchange exchange, EndpointFilter filter) Resolves the endpoint which should be used for the given message exchange using either a hard coded endpoint or some policy which chooses the endpoint dynamically using some algorithm.

Method Detail

resolveEndpoint

javax.jbi.servicedesc.ServiceEndpoint resolveEndpoint(javax.jbi.component.ComponentContext context,
                                                    javax.jbi.messaging.MessageExchange exchange,
                                                    EndpointFilter filter)
                                                      throws javax.jbi.JBIException

Resolves the endpoint which should be used for the given message exchange using either a hard coded endpoint or some policy which chooses the endpoint dynamically using some algorithm.

Parameters:

context - is the component context

exchange - the message exchange which the endpoint will be used for which may contain some state to help choose the algorithm.

filter - the filter to be applied to the available endpoints

Returns:

the chosen endpoint or null if no endpoint could be found.

Throws:

javax.jbi.JBIException

resolveAvailableEndpoints

javax.jbi.servicedesc.ServiceEndpoint[] resolveAvailableEndpoints(javax.jbi.component.ComponentContext context,
                                                                javax.jbi.messaging.MessageExchange exchange)
                                                                  throws javax.jbi.JBIException

Resolves all the available endpoints which may not be applicable to a component.

Throws:

javax.jbi.JBIException
