Interface IServiceRecordAction

public interface IServiceRecordAction

The IServiceRecordAction interface declares an API for executing an action against IServiceRecord objects within an IServiceRecordContainer. A single responsibilities is declared:

• Executing itself against a given service record.

An implementation of IServiceRecordAction is typically state-less since it is usually executed against multiple service records. This interface is used by the IServiceRecordContainer method doForEach(IServiceRecordAction, Object) and is typically anonymously implemented. For example, an action that collects the names of the services within a container could be written and executed as follows:

 IServiceRecordAction action = new IServiceRecordAction() {
     public boolean execute(IServiceRecord record, Object parameter) {
         String name = record.getName();
         Collection names = (Collection) parameter;
         names.add(name);
         return true;
     }
 };

 Collection names = new ArrayList();
 container.doForEach(action, names);
 

Note: Since this abstraction is used internally by the SAT bundle this interface is typically not used directly by bundle developers.
