org.apache.aries.proxy
Interface ProxyManager

public interface ProxyManager

The proxy manager service allows clients to generate and manage proxies.

Method Summary

Object	createDelegatingInterceptingProxy(org.osgi.framework.Bundle clientBundle, Collection<Class<?>> classes, Callable<Object> dispatcher, Object template, InvocationListener wrapper) Creates a single proxy that both delegates and intercepts.
Object	createDelegatingProxy(org.osgi.framework.Bundle clientBundle, Collection<Class<?>> classes, Callable<Object> dispatcher, Object template) Create a proxy that delegates to an object instance which may change over time
Object	createInterceptingProxy(org.osgi.framework.Bundle clientBundle, Collection<Class<?>> classes, Object delegate, InvocationListener wrapper) Creates a proxy that invokes the supplied InvocationListener immediately before and after any non-private method is called.
boolean	isProxy(Object proxy) Returns true if and only if the specified object was generated by the ProxyManager.
Callable<Object>	unwrap(Object proxy) This method unwraps the provided proxy returning the target object.

Method Detail

createDelegatingProxy

Object createDelegatingProxy(org.osgi.framework.Bundle clientBundle,
                             Collection<Class<?>> classes,
                             Callable<Object> dispatcher,
                             Object template)
                             throws UnableToProxyException

Create a proxy that delegates to an object instance which may change over time

Parameters:

clientBundle - The bundle providing the class to be proxied

classes - The interfaces and/or classes to be proxied

dispatcher - A Callable that will called each time the proxy is invoked to locate the object to delegate to

template - A template object for the proxy, may be null if only interfaces need to be proxied. Supplying a templates typically offer a significant performance boost to the resulting proxy.

Returns:

A proxy object that delegates to real objects under the covers

Throws:

UnableToProxyException

createInterceptingProxy

Object createInterceptingProxy(org.osgi.framework.Bundle clientBundle,
                               Collection<Class<?>> classes,
                               Object delegate,
                               InvocationListener wrapper)
                               throws UnableToProxyException

Creates a proxy that invokes the supplied InvocationListener immediately before and after any non-private method is called.

Parameters:

clientBundle -

classes -

delegate -

wrapper -

Returns:

Throws:

UnableToProxyException

createDelegatingInterceptingProxy

Object createDelegatingInterceptingProxy(org.osgi.framework.Bundle clientBundle,
                                         Collection<Class<?>> classes,
                                         Callable<Object> dispatcher,
                                         Object template,
                                         InvocationListener wrapper)
                                         throws UnableToProxyException

Creates a single proxy that both delegates and intercepts. See {ProxyManager#createDelegatingProxy(Bundle, Collection, Callable) and {ProxyManagercreateInterceptingProxy(Bundle, Collection, Object, InvocationListener)

Parameters:

clientBundle -

classes -

dispatcher -

template - A template object for the proxy, may be null if only interfaces need to be proxied. Supplying a templates typically offer a significant performance boost to the resulting proxy.

wrapper -

Returns:

Throws:

UnableToProxyException

unwrap

Callable<Object> unwrap(Object proxy)

This method unwraps the provided proxy returning the target object.

Parameters:

proxy - the proxy to unwrap.

Returns:

the target object.

isProxy

boolean isProxy(Object proxy)

Returns true if and only if the specified object was generated by the ProxyManager. See ProxyManager#createDelegatingProxy(Bundle,Collection,Callable) for details on how to create a proxy.

Parameters:

proxy - The proxy object to test

Returns:

true if it is a proxy, false otherwise.
