Method Detail

getConnectorFacadeKey

String getConnectorFacadeKey()

Gets the unique generated identifier of this ConnectorFacade. It's not guarantied that the equivalent configuration will generate the same configuration key. Always use the generated value and maintain it in the external application.

Returns:

identifier of this ConnectorFacade instance.

Since:

1.4

getSupportedOperations

Set<Class<? extends APIOperation>> getSupportedOperations()

Get the set of operations that this ConnectorFacade will support.

getOperation

APIOperation getOperation(Class<? extends APIOperation> clazz)

Get an instance of an operation that this facade supports.

dispose

void dispose()

Dispose of any resources associated with this facade (except for facade classes). This will dispose of any connector instances in the connector pool. The purpose of this method is to reduce resource waste for connectors that are no longer used. But it can also be used to implement "logout and login" functionality for connectors, e.g. in cases when server-side configuration has changed and the operator needs to force closing and re-opening of all connector connections.

1.5.0.0
