Class ServantLocatorPOA

Implemented Interfaces:
InvokeHandler, ServantLocatorOperations, ServantManagerOperations

public class ServantLocatorPOA
extends Servant
implements ServantLocatorOperations, InvokeHandler

The ServantLocator stub is an optional base for the servant locators. It cannot serve remote invocations, as methods in ServantLocatorOperations take POA as one of parameters. Both JDK 1.5 API and OMG specifies that POA is a local object that must not be transferred to the remote invocation target.

You do not need to derive your servant locator from this stub, it is enough to implement the ServantLocator interface. But you may choose to do this if you need its functional _ids() method or want to keep default behavior during per- or post- invokcations.

Method Summary

String[]
_all_interfaces(POA poa, byte[] Object_Id)
Returns an array of interfaces, supported by the servant locator.
OutputStream
_invoke(String method, InputStream input, ResponseHandler handler)
Our implementation will not call this method.
ServantLocator
_this()
Return the complete instance of the servant activator, based on the current class (ServantActivatorPOA or derived).
ServantLocator
_this(ORB orb)
Return the complete instance of the servant activator, based on the current class (ServantActivatorPOA or derived).
void
postinvoke(byte[] Object_Id, POA poa, String method, Object cookie, Servant servant)
It is your responsibility to take the postinvoke actions, if any, by overriding this method.
Servant
preinvoke(byte[] Object_Id, POA poa, String method, CookieHolder cookie_holder)
It is your responsibility to take the preinvoke actions, if any, and also supply an appropriate servant for the current invocation.

Method Details

_all_interfaces

public String[] _all_interfaces(POA poa,
                                byte[] Object_Id)
Returns an array of interfaces, supported by the servant locator.
Overrides:
_all_interfaces in interface Servant

_invoke

public OutputStream _invoke(String method,
                            InputStream input,
                            ResponseHandler handler)
            throws SystemException
Our implementation will not call this method. After setting your manager to POA, it will call incarnate and etherialize directly.
Specified by:
_invoke in interface InvokeHandler

_this

public ServantLocator _this()
Return the complete instance of the servant activator, based on the current class (ServantActivatorPOA or derived).

_this

public ServantLocator _this(ORB orb)
Return the complete instance of the servant activator, based on the current class (ServantActivatorPOA or derived).

postinvoke

public void postinvoke(byte[] Object_Id,
                       POA poa,
                       String method,
                       Object cookie,
                       Servant servant)
It is your responsibility to take the postinvoke actions, if any, by overriding this method. The default method does nothing.
Specified by:
postinvoke in interface ServantLocatorOperations

preinvoke

public Servant preinvoke(byte[] Object_Id,
                         POA poa,
                         String method,
                         CookieHolder cookie_holder)
            throws ForwardRequest
It is your responsibility to take the preinvoke actions, if any, and also supply an appropriate servant for the current invocation. The default method instructs POA that the servant cannot be provided by locator. The OBJ_ADAPTER exception will be thrown by POA, unless it uses the available default servant for all invocations.
Specified by:
preinvoke in interface ServantLocatorOperations
