Method Detail

• getConnection

  java.lang.Object getConnection(javax.security.auth.Subject subject,
                                 ConnectionRequestInfo cxRequestInfo)
                          throws ResourceException

  Creates a new connection handle for the underlying physical connection represented by the ManagedConnection instance. This connection handle is used by the application code to refer to the underlying physical connection. This connection handle is associated with its ManagedConnection instance in a resource adapter implementation specific way.

  The ManagedConnection uses the Subject and additional ConnectionRequest Info (which is specific to resource adapter and opaque to application server) to set the state of the physical connection.

  Parameters:

  subject - security context as JAAS subject

  cxRequestInfo - ConnectionRequestInfo instance

  Returns:

  generic Object instance representing the connection handle. For CCI, the connection handle created by a ManagedConnection instance is of the type javax.resource.cci.Connection.

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails

  ResourceAdapterInternalException - resource adapter internal error condition

  SecurityException - security related error condition

  CommException - failed communication with EIS instance

  EISSystemException - internal error condition in EIS instance - used if EIS instance is involved in setting state of ManagedConnection

• destroy

  void destroy()
        throws ResourceException

  Destroys the physical connection to the underlying resource manager.

  To manage the size of the connection pool, an application server can explictly call ManagedConnection.destroy to destroy a physical connection. A resource adapter should destroy all allocated system resources for this ManagedConnection instance when the method destroy is called.

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation failed

  IllegalStateException - illegal state for destroying connection

• cleanup

  void cleanup()
        throws ResourceException

  Application server calls this method to force any cleanup on the ManagedConnection instance.

  The method ManagedConnection.cleanup initiates a cleanup of the any client-specific state as maintained by a ManagedConnection instance. The cleanup should invalidate all connection handles that had been created using this ManagedConnection instance. Any attempt by an application component to use the connection handle after cleanup of the underlying ManagedConnection should result in an exception.

  The cleanup of ManagedConnection is always driven by an application server. An application server should not invoke ManagedConnection.cleanup when there is an uncompleted transaction (associated with a ManagedConnection instance) in progress.

  The invocation of ManagedConnection.cleanup method on an already cleaned-up connection should not throw an exception.

  The cleanup of ManagedConnection instance resets its client specific state and prepares the connection to be put back in to a connection pool. The cleanup method should not cause resource adapter to close the physical pipe and reclaim system resources associated with the physical connection.

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails

  ResourceAdapterInternalException - resource adapter internal error condition

  IllegalStateException - Illegal state for calling connection cleanup. Example - if a localtransaction is in progress that doesn't allow connection cleanup

• associateConnection

  void associateConnection(java.lang.Object connection)
                    throws ResourceException

  Used typically by the container to change the association of an application-level connection handle with a ManagedConnection instance. The container should find the right ManagedConnection instance and call the associateConnection method. In order to set a Connection Handle as the active connection handle, the container may also use the associateConnection method to set the same ManagedConnection associated with the Connection handle.

  The resource adapter is required to implement the associateConnection method. The method implementation for a ManagedConnection should dissociate the connection handle (passed as a parameter) from its currently associated ManagedConnection and associate the new connection handle with itself.

  Parameters:

  connection - Application-level connection handle

  Throws:

  ResourceException - Failed to associate the connection handle with this ManagedConnection instance

  IllegalStateException - Illegal state for invoking this method

  ResourceAdapterInternalException - Resource adapter internal error condition

• addConnectionEventListener

  void addConnectionEventListener(ConnectionEventListener listener)

  Adds a connection event listener to the ManagedConnection instance.

  The registered ConnectionEventListener instances are notified of connection close and error events, also of local transaction related events on the Managed Connection.

  Parameters:

  listener - a new ConnectionEventListener to be registered

• removeConnectionEventListener

  void removeConnectionEventListener(ConnectionEventListener listener)

  Removes an already registered connection event listener from the ManagedConnection instance.

  Parameters:

  listener - already registered connection event listener to be removed

• getXAResource

  javax.transaction.xa.XAResource getXAResource()
                                         throws ResourceException

  Returns an javax.transaction.xa.XAresource instance. An application server enlists this XAResource instance with the Transaction Manager if the ManagedConnection instance is being used in a JTA transaction that is being coordinated by the Transaction Manager.

  Returns:

  XAResource instance

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails

  NotSupportedException - if the operation is not supported

  ResourceAdapterInternalException - resource adapter internal error condition

• getLocalTransaction

  LocalTransaction getLocalTransaction()
                                throws ResourceException

  Returns an javax.resource.spi.LocalTransaction instance. The LocalTransaction interface is used by the container to manage local transactions for a RM instance.

  Returns:

  LocalTransaction instance

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails

  NotSupportedException - if the operation is not supported

  ResourceAdapterInternalException - resource adapter internal error condition

• getMetaData

  ManagedConnectionMetaData getMetaData()
                                 throws ResourceException

  Gets the metadata information for this connection's underlying EIS resource manager instance. The ManagedConnectionMetaData interface provides information about the underlying EIS instance associated with the ManagedConenction instance.

  Returns:

  ManagedConnectionMetaData instance

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails

  NotSupportedException - if the operation is not supported

• setLogWriter

  void setLogWriter(java.io.PrintWriter out)
             throws ResourceException

  Sets the log writer for this ManagedConnection instance.

  The log writer is a character output stream to which all logging and tracing messages for this ManagedConnection instance will be printed. Application Server manages the association of output stream with the ManagedConnection instance based on the connection pooling requirements.

  When a ManagedConnection object is initially created, the default log writer associated with this instance is obtained from the ManagedConnectionFactory. An application server can set a log writer specific to this ManagedConnection to log/trace this instance using setLogWriter method.

  Parameters:

  out - Character Output stream to be associated

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails

  ResourceAdapterInternalException - resource adapter related error condition

• getLogWriter

  java.io.PrintWriter getLogWriter()
                            throws ResourceException

  Gets the log writer for this ManagedConnection instance.

  The log writer is a character output stream to which all logging and tracing messages for this ManagedConnection instance will be printed. ConnectionManager manages the association of output stream with the ManagedConnection instance based on the connection pooling requirements.

  The Log writer associated with a ManagedConnection instance can be one set as default from the ManagedConnectionFactory (that created this connection) or one set specifically for this instance by the application server.

  Returns:

  Character ourput stream associated with this Managed- Connection instance

  Throws:

  ResourceException - generic exception if operation fails
