    • instantiateChild

      Object instantiateChild(String beanName) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException
      Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
      Instantiate the javaBean named as a child of this BeanContext. The implementation of the JavaBean is derived from the value of the beanName parameter, and is defined by the java.beans.Beans.instantiate() method.
      Parameters:
      beanName - The name of the JavaBean to instantiate as a child of this BeanContext
      Returns:
      a javaBean named as a child of this BeanContext
      Throws:
      IOException - if an IO problem occurs
      ClassNotFoundException - if the class identified by the beanName parameter is not found
    • getResourceAsStream

      InputStream getResourceAsStream(String name, BeanContextChild bcc) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
      Analogous to java.lang.ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(), this method allows a BeanContext implementation to interpose behavior between the child Component and underlying ClassLoader.
      Parameters:
      name - the resource name
      bcc - the specified child
      Returns:
      an InputStream for reading the resource, or null if the resource could not be found.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the resource is not valid
    • getResource

      URL getResource(String name, BeanContextChild bcc) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
      Analogous to java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource(), this method allows a BeanContext implementation to interpose behavior between the child Component and underlying ClassLoader.
      Parameters:
      name - the resource name
      bcc - the specified child
      Returns:
      a URL for the named resource for the specified child
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the resource is not valid
    • addBeanContextMembershipListener

      void addBeanContextMembershipListener(BeanContextMembershipListener bcml)
      Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
      Adds the specified BeanContextMembershipListener to receive BeanContextMembershipEvents from this BeanContext whenever it adds or removes a child Component(s).
      Parameters:
      bcml - the BeanContextMembershipListener to be added
    • removeBeanContextMembershipListener

      void removeBeanContextMembershipListener(BeanContextMembershipListener bcml)
      Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
      Removes the specified BeanContextMembershipListener so that it no longer receives BeanContextMembershipEvents when the child Component(s) are added or removed.
      Parameters:
      bcml - the BeanContextMembershipListener to be removed
