  • Method Details

    • init

      boolean init()
      Deprecated.
      Initiates the start of a component. This method is called once when a AnalysisController's run() method is called. This implementation must not be blocking! Asynchronous consumers would spawn (an) asynchronous thread(s) in this method.
      Returns:
      true on success; false otherwise.
      Since:
      1.6

    • terminate

      void terminate(boolean error)
      Deprecated.
      Initiates a termination of the plugin. This method is only used by the framework and should not be called manually. Use the method AnalysisController.terminate(boolean) instead. After receiving this notification, the plugin should terminate any running methods, e.g., read for readers.
      Parameters:
      error - Determines whether the plugin is terminated due to an error or not.
      Since:
      1.6

    • getCurrentConfiguration

      Configuration getCurrentConfiguration()
      Deprecated.
      This method should deliver a Configuration object containing the current configuration of this instance. In other words: The constructor should be able to use the given object to initialize a new instance of this class with the same intern properties.
      Specified by:
      getCurrentConfiguration in interface IAnalysisComponent
      Returns:
      A completely filled configuration object.
      Since:
      1.5

    • getPluginName

      String getPluginName()
      Deprecated.
      This method delivers the plugin name of this plugin. The name should be unique, e.g., the classname.
      Returns:
      The name of the plugin.
      Since:
      1.5

    • getPluginDescription

      String getPluginDescription()
      Deprecated.
      This method delivers the description of this plugin type.
      Returns:
      The description of the plugin type.
      Since:
      1.5

    • getName

      String getName()
      Deprecated.
      This method delivers the current name of this plugin instance. The name does not have to be unique.
      Specified by:
      getName in interface IAnalysisComponent
      Returns:
      The current name of the plugin instance.
      Since:
      1.5

    • connect

      void connect(String name, AbstractRepository repo) throws AnalysisConfigurationException
      Deprecated.
      Connects the given repository to this plugin via the given name. DO NOT USE THIS METHOD! Use AnalysisController.connect instead!
      Parameters:
      name - The name of the port to connect the repository.
      repo - The repository which should be used.
      Throws:
      AnalysisConfigurationException - if the repository-port is invalid, the repository itself is incompatible or the port is already used.
      Since:

    • getCurrentRepositories

      Map<String,AbstractRepository> getCurrentRepositories()
      Deprecated.
      This method delivers an array of AbstractRepository containing the current repositories of this instance. In other words: The constructor should be able to use the given object to initialize a new instance of this class with the same intern properties.
      Returns:
      An (possible empty) array of repositories.

      Parameters:
      outputPortName - The name of the output port.
      Returns:
