Interface IBizPolicyManager

All Superinterfaces:

IComponent, IComponentProvider, IInitializable, IURIResolver

public interface IBizPolicyManager
extends IComponentProvider

IBizPolicyManager manages all the registered IBizPolicys. This includes lifetime events (installation, uninstallation) as well as access to the IBizPolicys.

The IBizPolicyManager extends IThingComponentProvider and therefore stores all of the metadata about which policies are available, registered, enabled, etc in the database as instances of com.webmethods.portal.service.meta2.storage.impl.ComponentData stored in a system folder.

In order to access an IBizPolicy use one of the getBizPolicy(java.lang.String) APIs.

Method Detail

getBizPolicy

IBizPolicy getBizPolicy(String bizPolicyName)
                 throws BizException

Retrieve an IBizPolicy by name. You can use the IBizPolicyNames (recommended) or the defines in IBizPolicyManager.

In order to use the IBizPolicy, cast the returned object to the specific interface. For example: IBasicPolicy.

Parameters:

bizPolicyName - the name of the registered business policy.

Returns:

the bizPolicy requested.

Throws:

BizException - if unable to find the requested bizPolicy interface.

getBizPolicy

IBizPolicy getBizPolicy(IURI uri)
                 throws BizException

Returns an appropriate interface for the specified resource. So for example, if you have an IThingID, this will return the appropriate interface such as IContainerPolicy if the resource happens to be an IContainer.

Parameters:

uri - the IURI of the resource

Returns:

the bizPolicy requested.

Throws:

BizException - if unable to find the appropriate bizPolicy interface.
