Interface CapabilityExtractor

All Known Implementing Classes:

XmlCapabilityExtractor

public interface CapabilityExtractor

A component capable of extracting one specific capability out of a Class that composes a Capable

Because actual capabilities might be defined across several modules (or even extensions!) the actual extractors are fetched through SPI, using the standard ServiceLoader contract.

Each implementation of this class has to aim to one and only one specific capability type. It's this extractor's responsibility to ignore the capabilities which are outside of its domain and to ignore any extension types which don't support the given capability

Since:

3.7.0

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Object	extractCapability(org.mule.extension.introspection.declaration.DeclarationConstruct declarationConstruct, Class<?> capableType, org.mule.extension.introspection.declaration.HasCapabilities<? extends org.mule.extension.introspection.declaration.Construct> capableCallback) Looks for a specific capability in the given extensionType.

Method Detail

extractCapability

Object extractCapability(org.mule.extension.introspection.declaration.DeclarationConstruct declarationConstruct,
                       Class<?> capableType,
                       org.mule.extension.introspection.declaration.HasCapabilities<? extends org.mule.extension.introspection.declaration.Construct> capableCallback)

Looks for a specific capability in the given extensionType. and declares it into the given capableCallback. After doing such, the found capability is returned (or null if not found)

Parameters:

declarationConstruct - the construct that is being built

capableType - the type of the Capable class

capableCallback - a HasCapabilities on which the Capable is to be registered.

Returns:

the extracted capability or null if none found
