| UDIGConnectionFactory | | abstract public class UDIGConnectionFactory (Code) | | Implementations of this class provide connection information based on
context.
The connection information can be in the form of a map of connection
paramters, or a url, or both.
Implementations of this class have two responsibilties. The first is to
create a set of connection paramters based on context. The second is to
create a user interface capable of capturing user connection parameters.
Implementations of this class are provided via the
net.refractions.udig.catalog.ui.connectionFactory extension point.

| Method Summary | |
| abstract public boolean | canProcess(Object context)
Determines if the connection factory is capable of providing some
connection information based on the context object.
Parameters:
object - The object to be "processed" or "adapted" into connectioninformation. | | public UDIGConnectionPage | createConnectionPage()
This method returns the wizard page used to capture connecetion
parameters. | | abstract public Map<String, Serializable> | createConnectionParameters(Object context)
Get the connection parameters based on the provided context.
Context is often data from a workbench selection, but does not have to
be.
Parameters:
object - The object to be "processed" or "adapted" into a map of connection parameters. | | abstract public URL | createConnectionURL(Object context)
Get a connection url based on the provided context.
Context is often data from a workbench selection, but does not have to
be.
Parameters:
object - The object to be "processed" or "adapted" into a url. | | public void | setDescriptor(UDIGConnectionFactoryDescriptor descriptor)
Sets the descriptor which describies the connection factory. |
| XPID | | final public static String XPID(Code) | | extension point id *
|
| canProcess | | abstract public boolean canProcess(Object context)(Code) | | Determines if the connection factory is capable of providing some
connection information based on the context object.
Parameters:
object - The object to be "processed" or "adapted" into connectioninformation. True if the info can be returned based on the conext, otherwisefalse. |
| createConnectionPage | | public UDIGConnectionPage createConnectionPage()(Code) | | This method returns the wizard page used to capture connecetion
parameters. Subclasses may extend, but not overide this method.
A wizard connection page used to capture connection parameters. |
| createConnectionParameters | | abstract public Map<String, Serializable> createConnectionParameters(Object context)(Code) | | Get the connection parameters based on the provided context.
Context is often data from a workbench selection, but does not have to
be.
Parameters:
object - The object to be "processed" or "adapted" into a map of connection parameters. Map of connection parameters, or null if no such parameters couldbe created. |
| createConnectionURL | | abstract public URL createConnectionURL(Object context)(Code) | | Get a connection url based on the provided context.
Context is often data from a workbench selection, but does not have to
be.
Parameters:
object - The object to be "processed" or "adapted" into a url. An url, or null if no such url can be created. |
