Interface TransportEndPoint

public interface TransportEndPoint
A transport endpoint is an OSB entity/resource where service messages are originated or targeted

  • Method Details

    • getServiceRef

      Ref getServiceRef()
      Returns:
      the reference to the service representing this endpoint

    • getURI

      URI[] getURI()
      Returns:
      the array of URIs for this endpoint. Inbound endpoints will have a single URI, whereas outbound endpoints will be associated with multiple URIs

    • isInbound

      boolean isInbound()
      Returns:
      true if this is an inbound endpoint

    • getConfiguration

      com.bea.wli.sb.transports.EndPointConfiguration getConfiguration()
      Returns:
      an XML Bean that describes the configuration of this endpoint. Configuration properties are specific to the provider type for this endpoint.

    • getProvider

      TransportProvider getProvider()
      Returns:
      the transport provider for this endpoint

    • createRequestMetaData

      RequestMetaData createRequestMetaData() throws TransportException
      Returns:
      empty (new) meta-data for the request part of the outbound message, e.g. headers, etc.
      Throws:
      TransportException

    • createRequestMetaData

      RequestMetaData createRequestMetaData(org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlObject rmdXML) throws TransportException
      Returns:
      return meta-data for the request part of the outbound message initialized according to provider-defined XmlBean representation.
      Throws:
      TransportException

    • isTransactional

      boolean isTransactional() throws TransportException
      Returns:
      returns whether or not this endpoint uses transactions
      Throws:
      TransportException

    • getMessagePattern

      TransportEndPoint.MessagePatternEnum getMessagePattern() throws TransportException
      A given endpoint may utilize one of the following message patterns:
      • One Way - meaning no responses are expected, e.g. JMS proxy service that does not expect a response
      • Synchronous - request/response is implied. The response message is paired with the request message implicitly by the virtue of not having any other traffic on the transport channel from the time the request is issued until the time the response is received. In most cases this implies blocking calls for outbound requests. An example of this is EJB endpoint.
      • Asynchronous - request/response is implied. Not synchronous. The response is correlated to a request via some transport-specific mechanism. An example of this is JMS business service endpoint with request/reply
      Returns:
      returns the type of messaging pattern for this endpoint
      Throws:
      TransportException
