Class StandardPipeline

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.catalina.core.StandardPipeline

All Implemented Interfaces:

Contained, Lifecycle, Pipeline

public class StandardPipeline
extends java.lang.Object
implements Pipeline, Contained, Lifecycle

Standard implementation of a processing Pipeline that will invoke a series of Valves that have been configured to be called in order. This implementation can be used for any type of Container. IMPLEMENTATION WARNING - This implementation assumes that no calls to addValve() or removeValve are allowed while a request is currently being processed. Otherwise, the mechanism by which per-thread state is maintained will need to be modified.

container

protected Container container

The Container with which this Pipeline is associated.

info

protected java.lang.String info

Descriptive information about this implementation.

lifecycle

protected LifecycleSupport lifecycle

The lifecycle event support for this component.

sm

protected static StringManager sm

The string manager for this package.

started

protected boolean started

Has this component been started yet?

first

protected Valve first

The first valve associated with this Pipeline.

StandardPipeline

public StandardPipeline()

Construct a new StandardPipeline instance with no associated Container.

StandardPipeline

public StandardPipeline(Container container)

Construct a new StandardPipeline instance that is associated with the specified Container.

Parameters:

container - The container we should be associated with

getInfo

public java.lang.String getInfo()

Return descriptive information about this implementation class.

getContainer

public Container getContainer()

Return the Container with which this Pipeline is associated.

Specified by:

getContainer in interface Contained

setContainer

public void setContainer(Container container)

Set the Container with which this Pipeline is associated.

Specified by:

setContainer in interface Contained

Parameters:

container - The new associated container

addLifecycleListener

public void addLifecycleListener(LifecycleListener listener)

Add a lifecycle event listener to this component.

Specified by:

addLifecycleListener in interface Lifecycle

Parameters:

listener - The listener to add

findLifecycleListeners

public LifecycleListener[] findLifecycleListeners()

Get the lifecycle listeners associated with this lifecycle. If this Lifecycle has no listeners registered, a zero-length array is returned.

Specified by:

findLifecycleListeners in interface Lifecycle

removeLifecycleListener

public void removeLifecycleListener(LifecycleListener listener)

Remove a lifecycle event listener from this component.

Specified by:

removeLifecycleListener in interface Lifecycle

Parameters:

listener - The listener to remove

start

public void start()
           throws LifecycleException

Prepare for active use of the public methods of this Component.

Specified by:

start in interface Lifecycle

Throws:

LifecycleException - if this component detects a fatal error that prevents it from being started

stop

public void stop()
          throws LifecycleException

Gracefully shut down active use of the public methods of this Component.

Specified by:

stop in interface Lifecycle

Throws:

LifecycleException - if this component detects a fatal error that needs to be reported

getBasic

public Valve getBasic()

Return the Valve instance that has been distinguished as the basic Valve for this Pipeline (if any).

Specified by:

getBasic in interface Pipeline

setBasic

public void setBasic(Valve valve)

Set the Valve instance that has been distinguished as the basic Valve for this Pipeline (if any). Prioer to setting the basic Valve, the Valve's setContainer() will be called, if it implements Contained, with the owning Container as an argument. The method may throw an IllegalArgumentException if this Valve chooses not to be associated with this Container, or IllegalStateException if it is already associated with a different Container.

Specified by:

setBasic in interface Pipeline

Parameters:

valve - Valve to be distinguished as the basic Valve

addValve

public void addValve(Valve valve)

Add a new Valve to the end of the pipeline associated with this Container. Prior to adding the Valve, the Valve's setContainer() method will be called, if it implements Contained, with the owning Container as an argument. The method may throw an IllegalArgumentException if this Valve chooses not to be associated with this Container, or IllegalStateException if it is already associated with a different Container.

Specified by:

addValve in interface Pipeline

Parameters:

valve - Valve to be added

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this Container refused to accept the specified Valve

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the specifie Valve refuses to be associated with this Container

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the specified Valve is already associated with a different Container

getValves

public Valve[] getValves()

Return the set of Valves in the pipeline associated with this Container, including the basic Valve (if any). If there are no such Valves, a zero-length array is returned.

Specified by:

getValves in interface Pipeline

getValveObjectNames

public javax.management.ObjectName[] getValveObjectNames()

removeValve

public void removeValve(Valve valve)

Remove the specified Valve from the pipeline associated with this Container, if it is found; otherwise, do nothing. If the Valve is found and removed, the Valve's setContainer(null) method will be called if it implements Contained.

Specified by:

removeValve in interface Pipeline

Parameters:

valve - Valve to be removed

getFirst

public Valve getFirst()

Description copied from interface: Pipeline

Return the Valve instance that has been distinguished as the basic Valve for this Pipeline (if any).

Specified by:

getFirst in interface Pipeline
