Interface IEnterpriseApplication

public interface IEnterpriseApplication

A representation of a J2EE enterprise application (EAR file).

Provisional API: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Method Summary

boolean	containsLooseModules() Returns true if this EAR supports loose modules and false otherwise.
java.lang.String	getJ2EESpecificationVersion() Returns a version number in the form "x.y.z".
org.eclipse.core.runtime.IPath	getLocation() Returns the location of the root of the application.
IModule[]	getModules() Returns the modules contained within this EAR.
java.lang.String	getURI(IJ2EEModule module) Returns the URI of the given J2EE module within this enterprise application.
