Interface LinkedMOFactory

All Superinterfaces:

MOFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultMOFactory, SimMOFactory

public interface LinkedMOFactory
extends MOFactory

The LinkedMOFactory extends the basic MOFactory interface by means for associating managed objects with instrumentation helper objects. For example, could the REFERENCE clause of a MIB module contain a machine readable description of the value source (URI) of a particular managed object. This factory could then provide that reference to the managed objects created by this factory.
