Class FloodlightProvider

java.lang.Object
  net.floodlightcontroller.core.internal.FloodlightProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

IFloodlightModule

public class FloodlightProvider
extends java.lang.Object
implements IFloodlightModule

Constructor Summary

FloodlightProvider()

Method Summary

java.util.Collection<java.lang.Class<? extends IFloodlightService>>	getModuleDependencies() Get a list of Modules that this module depends on.
java.util.Collection<java.lang.Class<? extends IFloodlightService>>	getModuleServices() Return the list of interfaces that this module implements.
java.util.Map<java.lang.Class<? extends IFloodlightService>,IFloodlightService>	getServiceImpls() Instantiate (as needed) and return objects that implement each of the services exported by this module.
void	init(FloodlightModuleContext context) This is a hook for each module to do its internal initialization, e.g., call setService(context.getService("Service")) All module dependencies are resolved when this is called, but not every module is initialized.
void	startUp(FloodlightModuleContext context) This is a hook for each module to do its external initializations, e.g., register for callbacks or query for state in other modules It is expected that this function will not block and that modules that want non-event driven CPU will spawn their own threads.

Method Detail

getModuleServices

public java.util.Collection<java.lang.Class<? extends IFloodlightService>> getModuleServices()

Description copied from interface: IFloodlightModule

Return the list of interfaces that this module implements. All interfaces must inherit IFloodlightService

Specified by:

getModuleServices in interface IFloodlightModule

Returns:

getServiceImpls

public java.util.Map<java.lang.Class<? extends IFloodlightService>,IFloodlightService> getServiceImpls()

Description copied from interface: IFloodlightModule

Instantiate (as needed) and return objects that implement each of the services exported by this module. The map returned maps the implemented service to the object. The object could be the same object or different objects for different exported services.

Specified by:

getServiceImpls in interface IFloodlightModule

Returns:

The map from service interface class to service implementation

getModuleDependencies

public java.util.Collection<java.lang.Class<? extends IFloodlightService>> getModuleDependencies()

Description copied from interface: IFloodlightModule

Get a list of Modules that this module depends on. The module system will ensure that each these dependencies is resolved before the subsequent calls to init().

Specified by:

getModuleDependencies in interface IFloodlightModule

Returns:

The Collection of IFloodlightServices that this module depends on.

init

public void init(FloodlightModuleContext context)
          throws FloodlightModuleException

Description copied from interface: IFloodlightModule

This is a hook for each module to do its internal initialization, e.g., call setService(context.getService("Service")) All module dependencies are resolved when this is called, but not every module is initialized.

Specified by:

init in interface IFloodlightModule

Throws:

FloodlightModuleException

startUp

public void startUp(FloodlightModuleContext context)
             throws FloodlightModuleException

Description copied from interface: IFloodlightModule

This is a hook for each module to do its external initializations, e.g., register for callbacks or query for state in other modules It is expected that this function will not block and that modules that want non-event driven CPU will spawn their own threads.

Specified by:

startUp in interface IFloodlightModule

Throws:

FloodlightModuleException
