Interface UMOMessageDispatcher

All Superinterfaces:

Disposable, UMOConnectable, UMOMessageDispatching

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractMessageDispatcher

public interface UMOMessageDispatcher

extends Disposable, UMOConnectable, UMOMessageDispatching

UMOMessageDispatcher combines UMOMessageDispatching with various lifecycle methods for the actual instances doing message sending/receiving.

Method Summary

void	activate() This method can perform necessary state updates before any of the UMOMessageDispatching methods are invoked.
UMOConnector	getConnector() Gets the connector for this dispatcher
void	passivate() After sending/receiving a message, the dispatcher can use this method e.g.
boolean	validate() Determines whether this dispatcher can be reused after message sending/receiving.

Method Detail

activate

public void activate()

This method can perform necessary state updates before any of the UMOMessageDispatching methods are invoked.

See Also:

{@link UMOMessageDispatcherFactory#activate(org.mule.umo.endpoint.UMOImmutableEndpoint, UMOMessageDispatcher)}

passivate

public void passivate()

After sending/receiving a message, the dispatcher can use this method e.g. to clean up its internal state (if it has any) or return pooled resources to whereever it got them during activate().

See Also:

{@link UMOMessageDispatcherFactory#passivate(org.mule.umo.endpoint.UMOImmutableEndpoint, UMOMessageDispatcher)}

validate

public boolean validate()

Determines whether this dispatcher can be reused after message sending/receiving.

Returns:

true if this dispatcher can be reused, false otherwise (for example when Disposable.dispose() has been called because an Exception was raised)

getConnector

public UMOConnector getConnector()

Gets the connector for this dispatcher

Returns:

the connector for this dispatcher
