Method Detail

hasConnectionOpenable

boolean hasConnectionOpenable(H aHandle)
                       throws UnknownHandleRuntimeException

Determines whether the handle reference is ConnectionOpenable by implementing the ConnectionOpenable interface.

Parameters:

aHandle - The handle to test whether the reference provides the according functionality.

Returns:

True in case the reference provides the according functionality.

Throws:

UnknownHandleRuntimeException - in case the handle is unknown.

open

void open(H aHandle,
          CON aConnection)
   throws OpenException,
          UnknownHandleRuntimeException,
          UnsupportedHandleOperationRuntimeException,
          IllegalHandleStateChangeRuntimeException

Open/connect the component identified by the given handle.

Parameters:

aHandle - The handle identifying the component.

aConnection - The connection to be passed to the implementing instance.

Throws:

OpenException - in case opening/connecting fails.

UnknownHandleRuntimeException - in case the given handle is unknown.

UnsupportedHandleOperationRuntimeException - in case the reference of the handle does not support the requested operation.

IllegalHandleStateChangeRuntimeException - Thrown in case a state change is not possible due to the current state the referenced component is in.

openUnchecked

default void openUnchecked(H aHandle,
                           CON aConnection)

Opens the component by calling open(Object, Object) without you to require catching an OpenException.

Parameters:

aHandle - The handle identifying the component.

aConnection - The connection to be passed to the implementing instance.

Throws:

org.refcodes.exception.HiddenException - encapsulates the cause and is thrown upon encountering a OpenException exception
