## Class RelationService

- java.lang.Object
- - javax.management.NotificationBroadcasterSupport
  - - javax.management.relation.RelationService

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    EventListener, MBeanRegistration, NotificationBroadcaster, NotificationEmitter, NotificationListener, RelationServiceMBean

      public class RelationService
      extends NotificationBroadcasterSupport
      implements RelationServiceMBean, MBeanRegistration, NotificationListener

  The Relation Service is in charge of creating and deleting relation types and relations, of handling the consistency and of providing query mechanisms.

  It implements the NotificationBroadcaster by extending NotificationBroadcasterSupport to send notifications when a relation is removed from it.

  It implements the NotificationListener interface to be able to receive notifications concerning unregistration of MBeans referenced in relation roles and of relation MBeans.

  It implements the MBeanRegistration interface to be able to retrieve its ObjectName and MBean Server.

  Since:
    1.5

    - #### RelationService

          public RelationService(boolean immediatePurgeFlag)

      Constructor.
      Parameters:
        `immediatePurgeFlag` - flag to indicate when a notification is received for the unregistration of an MBean referenced in a relation, if an immediate "purge" of the relations (look for the relations no longer valid) has to be performed , or if that will be performed only when the purgeRelations method will be explicitly called.

        true is immediate purge.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### isActive

          public void isActive()
                        throws RelationServiceNotRegisteredException

      Checks if the Relation Service is active. Current condition is that the Relation Service must be registered in the MBean Server
      Specified by:
        `isActive` in interface `RelationServiceMBean`
      Throws:
        `RelationServiceNotRegisteredException` - if it is not registered

    - #### preRegister

          public ObjectName preRegister(MBeanServer server,
                                        ObjectName name)
                                 throws Exception

      Description copied from interface: `MBeanRegistration`
      Allows the MBean to perform any operations it needs before being registered in the MBean Server. If the name of the MBean is not specified, the MBean can provide a name for its registration. If any exception is raised, the MBean will not be registered in the MBean Server.
      Specified by:
        `preRegister` in interface `MBeanRegistration`
      Parameters:
        `server` - The MBean Server in which the MBean will be registered.
        `name` - The object name of the MBean. This name is null if the name parameter to one of the `createMBean` or `registerMBean` methods in the `MBeanServer` interface is null. In that case, this method must return a non-null ObjectName for the new MBean.
      Returns:
        The name under which the MBean is to be registered. This value must not be null. If the `name` parameter is not null, it will usually but not necessarily be the returned value.
      Throws:
        `Exception` - This exception will be caught by the MBean Server and re-thrown as an `MBeanRegistrationException`.

    - #### postRegister

          public void postRegister(Boolean registrationDone)

      Description copied from interface: `MBeanRegistration`
      Allows the MBean to perform any operations needed after having been registered in the MBean server or after the registration has failed.

      If the implementation of this method throws a `RuntimeException` or an `Error`, the MBean Server will rethrow those inside a `RuntimeMBeanException` or `RuntimeErrorException`, respectively. However, throwing an exception in `postRegister` will not change the state of the MBean: if the MBean was already registered (`registrationDone` is `true`), the MBean will remain registered.

      This might be confusing for the code calling `createMBean()` or `registerMBean()`, as such code might assume that MBean registration has failed when such an exception is raised. Therefore it is recommended that implementations of `postRegister` do not throw Runtime Exceptions or Errors if it can be avoided.

      Specified by:
        `postRegister` in interface `MBeanRegistration`
      Parameters:
        `registrationDone` - Indicates whether or not the MBean has been successfully registered in the MBean server. The value false means that the registration phase has failed.

    - #### preDeregister

          public void preDeregister()
                             throws Exception

      Description copied from interface: `MBeanRegistration`
      Allows the MBean to perform any operations it needs before being unregistered by the MBean server.
      Specified by:
        `preDeregister` in interface `MBeanRegistration`
      Throws:
        `Exception` - This exception will be caught by the MBean server and re-thrown as an `MBeanRegistrationException`.

    - #### postDeregister

          public void postDeregister()

      Description copied from interface: `MBeanRegistration`
      Allows the MBean to perform any operations needed after having been unregistered in the MBean server.

      If the implementation of this method throws a `RuntimeException` or an `Error`, the MBean Server will rethrow those inside a `RuntimeMBeanException` or `RuntimeErrorException`, respectively. However, throwing an exception in `postDeregister` will not change the state of the MBean: the MBean was already successfully deregistered and will remain so.

      This might be confusing for the code calling `unregisterMBean()`, as it might assume that MBean deregistration has failed. Therefore it is recommended that implementations of `postDeregister` do not throw Runtime Exceptions or Errors if it can be avoided.

      Specified by:
        `postDeregister` in interface `MBeanRegistration`

    - #### getPurgeFlag

          public boolean getPurgeFlag()

      true is immediate purge.

      Specified by:
        `getPurgeFlag` in interface `RelationServiceMBean`

      It is also called in Relation Service setRole() (for given role) and setRoles() (for each role) methods.

      To allow the Relation Service to maintain the consistency (in case of MBean unregistration) and to be able to perform queries, this method must be called when a role is updated.

                                     IllegalArgumentException,
                                     RelationNotFoundException

      Removes given relation from the Relation Service.

      A RelationNotification notification is sent, its type being:

      - RelationNotification.RELATION_BASIC_REMOVAL if the relation was only internal to the Relation Service

      - RelationNotification.RELATION_MBEAN_REMOVAL if the relation is registered as an MBean.

      For MBeans referenced in such relation, nothing will be done,

      Specified by:
        `removeRelation` in interface `RelationServiceMBean`
      Parameters:
        `relationId` - relation id of the relation to be removed
      Throws:
        `RelationServiceNotRegisteredException` - if the Relation Service is not registered in the MBean Server
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if null parameter
        `RelationNotFoundException` - if no relation corresponding to given relation id

    - #### purgeRelations

          public void purgeRelations()
                              throws RelationServiceNotRegisteredException

      Purges the relations.

      Depending on the purgeFlag value, this method is either called automatically when a notification is received for the unregistration of an MBean referenced in a relation (if the flag is set to true), or not (if the flag is set to false).

      In that case it is up to the user to call it to maintain the consistency of the relations. To be kept in mind that if an MBean is unregistered and the purge not done immediately, if the ObjectName is reused and assigned to another MBean referenced in a relation, calling manually this purgeRelations() method will cause trouble, as will consider the ObjectName as corresponding to the unregistered MBean, not seeing the new one.

      The behavior depends on the cardinality of the role where the unregistered MBean is referenced:

      - if removing one MBean reference in the role makes its number of references less than the minimum degree, the relation has to be removed.

      - if the remaining number of references after removing the MBean reference is still in the cardinality range, keep the relation and update it calling its handleMBeanUnregistration() callback.

      Specified by:
        `purgeRelations` in interface `RelationServiceMBean`
      Throws:
        `RelationServiceNotRegisteredException` - if the Relation Service is not registered in the MBean Server.
