public class AxisProperties

extends java.lang.Object

Configuration properties for AXIS.

Manage configuration properties according to a secure scheme similar to that used by classloaders:

• ClassLoaders are organized in a tree hierarchy.
• each ClassLoader has a reference to a parent ClassLoader.
• the root of the tree is the bootstrap ClassLoaderer.
• the youngest decendent is the thread context class loader.
• properties are bound to a ClassLoader instance
  • non-default properties bound to a parent ClassLoader instance take precedence over all properties of the same name bound to any decendent. Just to confuse the issue, this is the default case.
  • default properties bound to a parent ClassLoader instance may be overriden by (default or non-default) properties of the same name bound to any decendent.
• System properties take precedence over all other properties

Method Detail

setClassOverrideProperty

public static void setClassOverrideProperty(java.lang.Class clazz,
                                            java.lang.String propertyName)

                                    java.lang.String[] defaultNames)

getNameDiscoverer

public static org.apache.commons.discovery.ResourceNameDiscover getNameDiscoverer()

getResourceClassIterator

public static org.apache.commons.discovery.ResourceClassIterator getResourceClassIterator(java.lang.Class spi)

newInstance

public static java.lang.Object newInstance(java.lang.Class spiClass)

!WARNING! SECURITY issue. See bug 11874 The solution to both is to move doPrivilege UP within AXIS to a class that is either private (cannot be reached by code outside AXIS) or that represents a secure public interface... This is going to require analysis and (probably) rearchitecting. So, I'm taking taking the easy way out until we are at a point where we can reasonably rearchitect for security.

newInstance

public static java.lang.Object newInstance(java.lang.Class spiClass,
                                           java.lang.Class[] constructorParamTypes,
                                           java.lang.Object[] constructorParams)

getProperty

public static java.lang.String getProperty(java.lang.String propertyName)

Get value for property bound to the current thread context class loader.

Parameters:

propertyName - property name.

Returns:

property value if found, otherwise default.

getProperty

public static java.lang.String getProperty(java.lang.String propertyName,
                                           java.lang.String dephault)

Get value for property bound to the current thread context class loader. If not found, then return default.

Parameters:

propertyName - property name.

dephault - default value.

Returns:

property value if found, otherwise default.

setProperty

public static void setProperty(java.lang.String propertyName,
                               java.lang.String value)

Set value for property bound to the current thread context class loader.

Parameters:

propertyName - property name

value - property value (non-default) If null, remove the property.

setProperty

public static void setProperty(java.lang.String propertyName,
                               java.lang.String value,
                               boolean isDefault)

Set value for property bound to the current thread context class loader.

Parameters:

propertyName - property name

value - property value. If null, remove the property.

isDefault - determines if property is default or not. A non-default property cannot be overriden. A default property can be overriden by a property (default or non-default) of the same name bound to a decendent class loader.

setProperties

public static void setProperties(java.util.Map newProperties)

Set property values for Properties bound to the current thread context class loader.

Parameters:

newProperties - name/value pairs to be bound

setProperties

public static void setProperties(java.util.Map newProperties,
                                 boolean isDefault)

Set property values for Properties bound to the current thread context class loader.

Parameters:

newProperties - name/value pairs to be bound

isDefault - determines if properties are default or not. A non-default property cannot be overriden. A default property can be overriden by a property (default or non-default) of the same name bound to a decendent class loader.

propertyNames

public static java.util.Enumeration propertyNames()

getProperties

public static java.util.Properties getProperties()

This is an expensive operation.

Returns:

Returns a java.util.Properties instance that is equivalent to the current state of the scoped properties, in that getProperty() will return the same value. However, this is a copy, so setProperty on the returned value will not effect the scoped properties.

newInstance

public static java.lang.Object newInstance(java.lang.Class spiClass,
                                           java.lang.Class defaultClass)
