Method Detail

getInstance

public Node getInstance(Node parent,
                        String name)
                 throws NodeCreationException

Creates ClassloaderConfigurationDocument objects only as children of ClassloaderFolders.

Specified by:

getInstance in interface NodeFactory

Parameters:

parent - the parent Folder of the Node. Can be null only if the Node is the root Node for the ConfigurationService

name - the name of the Node. Cannot be null.

Returns:

Node the new Node

Throws:

InvalidParameterException - if parent is not assignable from ClassloaderFolders

NodeCreationException - if the LinkNode cannot be created.

getFileExtension

protected abstract String getFileExtension()

Gets the extension for the node being created by the factory. The extension is used to identify the type of node contained within the document (ConfigurationDocument or LinkNode at this time).

Returns:

String the file extension starting with a '.'

getConfigurationFormatService

protected ConfigurationFormatService getConfigurationFormatService()

Method that determines which ConfigurationFormatService will be used within the ConfigurationDocuments of this package. The default implementation returns a static instance of org.sape.carbon.core.config.format.DefaultConfigurationFormatService. Override this method to change the ConfigurationFormatService used by the FileConfigurationDocument.

Returns:

ConfigurationFormatService
