Interface IBundleReferencePersistable

All Superinterfaces:

IPersistable

public interface IBundleReferencePersistable
extends IPersistable

Classes that implement the IBundleReferencePersistable interface are standard IPersistable classes that must also be able to provide a reference to the bundle from which they may be loaded.

EXPERIMENTAL. This class or interface has been added as part of a work in progress. There is no guarantee that this API will work or that it will remain the same. Please do not use this API without consulting with the MTJ team.

getBundle

String getBundle()

Return the bundle identifier that should be used to load this persistable. The bundle identifier must be the symbolic name of that bundle as specified by its Bundle-SymbolicName manifest header.

Clients must always return a valid bundle identifier in order to MTJ correctly load that bundle.

The symbolic name of a bundle may be retrieved using the Bundle#getSymbolicName() method.

Returns:

the symbolic name of the bundle that should be used to load this persistable.

setBundle

void setBundle(String bundle)

Set the bundle identifier that is used to load this persistable. The bundle identifier must be the symbolic name of that bundle as specified by its Bundle-SymbolicName manifest header.

The symbolic name of a bundle may be retrieved using the Bundle#getSymbolicName() method.

Parameters:

bundle - a valid bundle identifier.
