Class ArtifactManager

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.common.ArtifactManager

public class ArtifactManager
extends Object

Manage the artifacts: be able to retrieve an artifact from the id in a marker, for example.

Note that there can be more than one ArtifactManager, distinguished by an ID, probably a markerID. That is, all artifacts of the same markerID (probably shown in the same view) are managed by the same (distinct) ArtifactManager. TODO Question: why can't we just store the objects in an attribute??

Field Summary

static HashMap

registry Registry of artifact managers.

Constructor Summary

ArtifactManager(String id)
Create ArtifactManager from id

Method Summary

void	addArtifactToHash(IArtifact a) Add an artifact to the hashtable for future lookup
void	clear() Remove all the artifacts
static IArtifact	getArtifact(IMarker marker) return the artifact for a marker; involves looking up the Artifact Manager, then the Artifact within that.
HashMap	getArtifactMap() get hashtable of artifact map
Object[]	getArtifacts()
static ArtifactManager	getManager(String id) return the ArtifactManager used for managing artifacts of type "id" (probably a marker id)
boolean	removeArtifact(IArtifact a) Remove artifact by artifact object
boolean	removeArtifact(String key) Remove artifact by key
String	toString()

                             throws CoreException
