Class IoCFilter

java.lang.Object

org.mentawai.core.InputWrapper

org.mentawai.filter.IoCFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Map, AfterConsequenceFilter, Filter, Input

public class IoCFilter
extends InputWrapper
implements AfterConsequenceFilter

Autowiring filter for IoC. This is basically a pull approach for IoC, in other words, if you don't ask for the component, it will not be instantiated. On the other hand, the PushIoCFilter (old IoCFilter) has a push approach, in other words, it will instantiate (according to scope) and place the object in the action input, even if you don't need it.

Method Detail

filter

public String filter(InvocationChain chain)
              throws Exception

Description copied from interface: Filter

Executes the filter.

                    Consequence c,
                    boolean conseqExecuted,
                    boolean actionExecuted,
                    String result)
