Method Summary

boolean	execute() Initiates the start of a component.
void	terminate(boolean error) Initiates a termination of the component.

Method Detail

execute

boolean execute()

Initiates the start of a component. This method is called once when a TpanInstance's run() method is called. This implementation must not be blocking! Asynchronous consumers would spawn (an) aynchronous thread(s) in this method.

Returns:

true on success; false otherwise.

terminate

void terminate(boolean error)

Initiates a termination of the component. The value of the parameter error indicates whether an error occured.

Parameters:

error - true iff an error occured.
