Interface DeploymentManager

public interface DeploymentManager

The DeploymentManager object provides the core set of functions a J2EE platform must provide for J2EE application deployment. It provides server related information, such as, a list of deployment targets, and vendor unique runtime configuration information.

A value of true means redeployment is supported by this vendor's DeploymentManager. False means it is not.

redeploy

ProgressObject redeploy(TargetModuleID[] moduleIDList,

(optional) The redeploy method provides a means for updating currently deployed J2EE applications. This is an optional method for vendor implementation. Redeploy replaces a currently deployed application with an updated version. The runtime configuration information for the updated application must remain identical to the application it is updating. When an application update is redeployed, all existing client connections to the original running application must not be disrupted; new clients will connect to the application update. This operation is valid for TargetModuleIDs that represent a root module. A root TargetModuleID has no parent. A root TargetModuleID module and all its child modules will be redeployed. A child TargetModuleID module cannot be individually redeployed. The redeploy operation is complete only when this action for all the modules has completed.

Parameters:

moduleIDList - An array of designators of the applications to be updated.

moduleArchive - The file name of the application archive to be disrtibuted.

deploymentPlan - The deployment configuration information associated with this application archive.

Returns:

ProgressObject an object that tracks and reports the status of the redeploy operation.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - is thrown when the method is called when running in disconnected mode.

UnsupportedOperationException - this optional command is not supported by this implementation.

release

void release()

The release method is the mechanism by which the tool signals to the DeploymentManager that the tool does not need it to continue running connected to the platform. The tool may be signaling it wants to run in a disconnected mode or it is planning to shutdown. When release is called the DeploymentManager may close any J2EE resource connections it had for deployment configuration and perform other related resource cleanup. It should not accept any new operation requests (i.e., distribute, start stop, undeploy, redeploy. It should finish any operations that are currently in process. Each ProgressObject associated with a running operation should be marked as released (see the ProgressObject).
