18 * Binding-aware core of the SAL layer responsible for wiring the SAL consumers.
21 * The responsibility of the broker is to maintain registration of SAL
22 * functionality Consumers and Providers, store provider and
23 * consumer specific context and functionality registration via
24 * {@link ConsumerContext} and provide access to infrastructure services, which
25 * removes direct dependencies between providers and consumers.
28 * The Binding-aware broker is also responsible for translation from Java
29 * classes modeling the functionality and data to binding-independent form which
30 * is used in SAL Core.
32 * <h3>Infrastructure services</h3> Some examples of infrastructure services:
35 * <li>YANG Module service - see {@link ConsumerContext#getRpcService(Class)},
36 * {@link ProviderContext}
37 * <li>Notification Service - see {@link NotificationService} and
38 * {@link NotificationProviderService}
42 * The services are exposed via session.
44 * <h3>Session-based access</h3>
47 * The providers and consumers needs to register in order to use the
48 * binding-independent SAL layer and to expose functionality via SAL layer.
51 * For more information about session-based access see {@link ConsumerContext}
52 * and {@link ProviderContext}
54 public interface BindingAwareBroker {

59 ConsumerContext registerConsumer(BindingAwareConsumer consumer, BundleContext ctx);
62 * Registers the {@link BindingAwareConsumer}, which will use the SAL layer.
65 * Note that consumer could register additional functionality at later point
66 * by using service and functionality specific APIs.
69 * The consumer is required to use returned session for all communication
70 * with broker or one of the broker services. The session is announced to
71 * the consumer by invoking
72 * {@link BindingAwareConsumer#onSessionInitialized(ConsumerContext)}.
75 * Consumer to be registered.

77 * @throws IllegalArgumentException
78 * If the consumer is <code>null</code>.

80 * If the consumer is already registered.

85 * @deprecated Use registerProvider(BindingAwareProvider prov) instead (BundleContext is no longer used)
88 ProviderContext registerProvider(BindingAwareProvider provider, BundleContext ctx);
91 * Registers the {@link BindingAwareProvider}, which will use the SAL layer.
94 * During the registration, the broker obtains the initial functionality
95 * from consumer, using the
96 * BindingAwareProvider#getImplementations(), and register that
97 * functionality into system and concrete infrastructure services.
100 * Note that provider could register additional functionality at later point
101 * by using service and functionality specific APIs.
104 * The consumer is <b>required to use</b> returned session for all
105 * communication with broker or one of the broker services. The session is
106 * announced to the consumer by invoking
107 * {@link BindingAwareProvider#onSessionInitiated(ProviderContext)}.
111 * Provider to be registered.
112 * @return a session unique to the provider registration.
113 * @throws IllegalArgumentException
114 * If the provider is <code>null</code>.

121 * {@link BindingAwareConsumer} specific access to the SAL functionality.
124 * ConsumerSession is {@link BindingAwareConsumer}-specific access to the
125 * SAL functionality and infrastructure services.
128 * The session serves to store SAL context (e.g. registration of
129 * functionality) for the consumer and provides access to the SAL
130 * infrastructure services and other functionality provided by
131 * {@link BindingAwareProvider}s.
133 interface ConsumerContext extends RpcConsumerRegistry {

140 * @return Session specific implementation of service
142 <T extends BindingAwareService> T getSALService(Class<T> service);
146 * {@link BindingAwareProvider} specific access to the SAL functionality.
149 * ProviderSession is {@link BindingAwareProvider}-specific access to the
150 * SAL functionality and infrastructure services, which also allows for
151 * exposing the provider's functionality to the other
152 * {@link BindingAwareConsumer}s.
155 * The session serves to store SAL context (e.g. registration of
156 * functionality) for the providers and exposes access to the SAL
157 * infrastructure services, dynamic functionality registration and any other
158 * functionality provided by other {@link BindingAwareConsumer}s.
