Interface RepositoryDriver

All Known Implementing Classes:

MemRepositoryDriver

public interface RepositoryDriver

The RepositoryDriver adapts between the SmiManager and the (persistent) storage that holds the compiled MIB modules. By implementing this interface you can create your own driver to store MIB repository data in a database, for example. SmiManager uses a default driver which stores the MIB repository in a directory.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	deleteModule(RepositoryIO event) Requests deletion of the MIB module identified by the module name supplied with the RepositoryIO object.
String[]	listModuleNames() Enumerates the available MIB module names in the repository.
void	readModule(RepositoryIO event) Requests to read a MIB module with the name specified in the supplied event object.
void	writeModule(RepositoryIO event) Requests to write a MIB module with the name specified in the supplied event object.

Method Detail

writeModule

void writeModule(RepositoryIO event)

Requests to write a MIB module with the name specified in the supplied event object. Implementations of this method should set the OutputStream member of the supplied event object.

Parameters:

event - a RepositoryIO with the module name of the MIB module that should be written to persistent storage. The implementation of this interface should set the OutputStream of event.

readModule

void readModule(RepositoryIO event)

Requests to read a MIB module with the name specified in the supplied event object. Implementations of this method should set the InputStream member of the supplied event object.

Parameters:

event - a RepositoryIO with the module name of the MIB module that should be read from persistent storage. The implementation of this interface should set the InputStream of event.

deleteModule

void deleteModule(RepositoryIO event)

Requests deletion of the MIB module identified by the module name supplied with the RepositoryIO object.

Parameters:

event - a RepositoryIO with the module name of the MIB module that should be removed from persistent MIB repository storage. If a listener has successfully removed the module, it must set the corresponding flag in the supplied event object.

listModuleNames

String[] listModuleNames()

Enumerates the available MIB module names in the repository.

Returns:

a list of MIB module names or null if that method is not supported by the listener.
