Interface Server

All Superinterfaces:

Lifecycle

All Known Implementing Classes:

StandardServer

public interface Server
extends Lifecycle

A Server element represents the entire Catalina servlet container. Its attributes represent the characteristics of the servlet container as a whole. A Server may contain one or more Services, and the top level set of naming resources.

Normally, an implementation of this interface will also implement Lifecycle, such that when the start() and stop() methods are called, all of the defined Services are also started or stopped.

In between, the implementation must open a server socket on the port number specified by the port property. When a connection is accepted, the first line is read and compared with the specified shutdown command. If the command matches, shutdown of the server is initiated.

NOTE - The concrete implementation of this class should register the (singleton) instance with the ServerFactory class in its constructor(s).

Method Detail

getGlobalNamingResources

NamingResourcesImpl getGlobalNamingResources()

Returns:

the global naming resources.

setGlobalNamingResources

void setGlobalNamingResources(NamingResourcesImpl globalNamingResources)

Set the global naming resources.

Parameters:

globalNamingResources - The new global naming resources

getGlobalNamingContext

Context getGlobalNamingContext()

Returns:

the global naming resources context.

getPort

int getPort()

Returns:

the port number we listen to for shutdown commands.

setPort

void setPort(int port)

Set the port number we listen to for shutdown commands.

Parameters:

port - The new port number

getAddress

String getAddress()

Returns:

the address on which we listen to for shutdown commands.

setAddress

void setAddress(String address)

Set the address on which we listen to for shutdown commands.

Parameters:

address - The new address

getShutdown

String getShutdown()

Returns:

the shutdown command string we are waiting for.

setShutdown

void setShutdown(String shutdown)

Set the shutdown command we are waiting for.

Parameters:

shutdown - The new shutdown command

getParentClassLoader

ClassLoader getParentClassLoader()

Returns:

the parent class loader for this component. If not set, return getCatalina() Catalina.getParentClassLoader(). If catalina has not been set, return the system class loader.

setParentClassLoader

void setParentClassLoader(ClassLoader parent)

Set the parent class loader for this server.

Parameters:

parent - The new parent class loader

getCatalina

Catalina getCatalina()

Returns:

the outer Catalina startup/shutdown component if present.

setCatalina

void setCatalina(Catalina catalina)

Set the outer Catalina startup/shutdown component if present.

Parameters:

catalina - the outer Catalina component

getCatalinaBase

File getCatalinaBase()

Returns:

the configured base (instance) directory. Note that home and base may be the same (and are by default). If this is not set the value returned by getCatalinaHome() will be used.

setCatalinaBase

void setCatalinaBase(File catalinaBase)

Set the configured base (instance) directory. Note that home and base may be the same (and are by default).

Parameters:

catalinaBase - the configured base directory

getCatalinaHome

File getCatalinaHome()

Returns:

the configured home (binary) directory. Note that home and base may be the same (and are by default).

setCatalinaHome

void setCatalinaHome(File catalinaHome)

Set the configured home (binary) directory. Note that home and base may be the same (and are by default).

Parameters:

catalinaHome - the configured home directory

addService

void addService(Service service)

Add a new Service to the set of defined Services.

Parameters:

service - The Service to be added

await

void await()

Wait until a proper shutdown command is received, then return.

findService

Service findService(String name)

Find the specified Service

Parameters:

name - Name of the Service to be returned

Returns:

the specified Service, or null if none exists.

findServices

Service[] findServices()

Returns:

the set of Services defined within this Server.

removeService

void removeService(Service service)

Remove the specified Service from the set associated from this Server.

Parameters:

service - The Service to be removed

getNamingToken

Object getNamingToken()

Returns:

the token necessary for operations on the associated JNDI naming context.
