Interface WorkContext

All Superinterfaces:
java.io.Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
HintsContext, SecurityContext, TransactionContext

public interface WorkContext
extends java.io.Serializable

This class serves as a standard mechanism for a resource adapter to propagate an imported context from an enterprise information system to an application server.

A Work instance, that implements the WorkContextProvider, could provide a List of these WorkContext instances (through the getWorkContexts() method), and have them setup as the execution context by the WorkManager when the Work instance gets executed. The resource adapter must not make any changes to the state of the WorkContext after the Work instance corresponding to that WorkContext has been submitted to the WorkManager.

Since:
1.6
Version:
Java EE Connector Architecture 1.6

Method Summary
 java.lang.String getDescription()

 java.lang.String getName()
