The IS-Cache provides simple and flexible methods for retrieving and caching the Endpoint references of gCube web services published in the IS. A component that uses the IS-Cache library, is able to retrieve Endpoint references for:

  • services' Running Instances
  • factory services' Running Instances
  • Web Service statefull resources

Additionally the IS-Cache provides an option for further restricting the final results, by using custom filtering criteria.

Usage

The first step for using the ISCache is to create an instance for a specific scope through the following constructor

        /**
	 * Constructor
	 * @param scope scope
	 */
	public ISCache(GCUBEScope scope);

Then using this instance a component can find the EPRs for services' RIs by using the following method

        /**
	 * Get the running instances (array of URLs) of the specified service
	 * 
	 * @param srvClass
	 *            service class
	 * @param srvName
	 *            service name
	 * @param srvType
	 * 			  service type
	 * @return the running instances (array of URLs) of the specified service
	 * @throws Exception
	 *             in case of error; most probably due to the fact that the
	 *             specified service is not registered.
	 * @see org.gcube.informationsystem.cache.ISCacheMBean#getEPRsFor(String, String,
	 *      String)
	 */
	public EndpointReference[] getEPRsFor(String srvClass, String srvName, String srvType);
