java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.beans.factory.config.DestructionAwareAttributeHolder

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class DestructionAwareAttributeHolder
extends Object
implements Serializable

A container object holding a map of attributes and optionally destruction callbacks. The callbacks will be invoked, if an attribute is being removed or if the holder is cleaned out.

Since:

3.1

Constructor Summary

DestructionAwareAttributeHolder()

Method Summary

void	clear() Clears the map by removing all registered attribute values and invokes every destruction callback registered.
Object	getAttribute(String name) Returns the attribute having the specified name, if available, null otherwise.
Map<String,Object>	getAttributeMap() Returns the map representation of the registered attributes directly.
Runnable	getDestructionCallback(String name, boolean remove) Returns the destruction callback, if any registered for the attribute with the given name or null if no such callback was registered.
void	registerDestructionCallback(String name, Runnable callback) Register a callback to be executed on destruction of the specified object in the scope (or at destruction of the entire scope, if the scope does not destroy individual objects but rather only terminates in its entirety).
Object	removeAttribute(String name) Remove the object with the given name from the underlying scope.
Object	setAttribute(String name, Object value) Puts the given object with the specified name as an attribute to the underlying map.

DestructionAwareAttributeHolder

public DestructionAwareAttributeHolder()

Method Detail

getAttributeMap

public Map<String,Object> getAttributeMap()

Returns the map representation of the registered attributes directly. Be aware to synchronize any invocations to it on the map object itself to avoid concurrent modification exceptions.

Returns:

the attributes as a map representation

getAttribute

public Object getAttribute(String name)

Returns the attribute having the specified name, if available, null otherwise.

Parameters:

name - the name of the attribute to be returned

Returns:

the attribute value or null if not available

setAttribute

public Object setAttribute(String name,
                           Object value)

Puts the given object with the specified name as an attribute to the underlying map.

Parameters:

name - the name of the attribute

value - the value to be stored

Returns:

any previously object stored under the same name, if any, null otherwise

removeAttribute

public Object removeAttribute(String name)

Remove the object with the given name from the underlying scope.

Returns null if no object was found; otherwise returns the removed Object.

Note that an implementation should also remove a registered destruction callback for the specified object, if any. It does, however, not need to execute a registered destruction callback in this case, since the object will be destroyed by the caller (if appropriate).

Note: This is an optional operation. Implementations may throw UnsupportedOperationException if they do not support explicitly removing an object.

Parameters:

name - the name of the object to remove

Returns:

the removed object, or null if no object was present

registerDestructionCallback(java.lang.String, java.lang.Runnable)

clear

public void clear()

Clears the map by removing all registered attribute values and invokes every destruction callback registered.

registerDestructionCallback

public void registerDestructionCallback(String name,
                                        Runnable callback)

Register a callback to be executed on destruction of the specified object in the scope (or at destruction of the entire scope, if the scope does not destroy individual objects but rather only terminates in its entirety).

Note: This is an optional operation. This method will only be called for scoped beans with actual destruction configuration (DisposableBean, destroy-method, DestructionAwareBeanPostProcessor). Implementations should do their best to execute a given callback at the appropriate time. If such a callback is not supported by the underlying runtime environment at all, the callback must be ignored and a corresponding warning should be logged.

Note that 'destruction' refers to to automatic destruction of the object as part of the scope's own lifecycle, not to the individual scoped object having been explicitly removed by the application. If a scoped object gets removed via this facade's removeAttribute(String) method, any registered destruction callback should be removed as well, assuming that the removed object will be reused or manually destroyed.

Parameters:

name - the name of the object to execute the destruction callback for

callback - the destruction callback to be executed. Note that the passed-in Runnable will never throw an exception, so it can safely be executed without an enclosing try-catch block. Furthermore, the Runnable will usually be serializable, provided that its target object is serializable as well.

getDestructionCallback

public Runnable getDestructionCallback(String name,
                                       boolean remove)

Returns the destruction callback, if any registered for the attribute with the given name or null if no such callback was registered.

Parameters:

name - the name of the registered callback requested

remove - true, if the callback should be removed after this call, false, if it stays

Returns:

the callback, if found, null otherwise
