14.10. Configuring a Java Bean Action
The Java Bean Action class must implement the
org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.BeanConfiguredAction
marker interface in order to make the action Bean populate automatically. Here is some sample code:
import org.jboss.soa.esb.message.Message; import org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.BeanConfiguredAction; public class PrintMessage implements BeanConfiguredAction { private String information; private Integer repeatCount; public void setInformation(String information) { this.information = information; } public void setRepeatCount(Integer repeatCount) { this.repeatCount = repeatCount; } public Message process(Message message) { for (int i=0; i < repeatCount; i++) { System.out.println(information); } return message; } }
Note
The Integer parameter in the
setRepeatCount()
method is automatically converted from the String representation specified in the XML.
The
BeanConfiguredAction
method of loading properties is a good choice for actions that take simple arguments, while the ConfigTree
method is a better option in situations when one needs to deal with the XML representation directly.
Important
These actions do not support the lifecycle methods. Rather they will be instantiated for every message passing through the action pipeline and will always have their
process
methods invoked using reflection.
