Class ObjectSource<T>

java.lang.Object

org.mule.extension.validation.internal.ObjectSource<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the object to be returned

Direct Known Subclasses:

ExceptionFactorySource

public class ObjectSource<T>
extends Object

A factory object for providing instances by either referencing their classname (through the type attribute, or a MuleRegistry reference (through the ref one.

When the type attribute is used to reference a type, then a new instance is returned each time that getObject(MuleContext) is invoked. That type is also expected to have a public default Constructor.

When a ref is provided, then that value is searched by using the Registry.get(String). Notice however that the reference will be re fetched each time that getObject(MuleContext) is invoked

The type and ref attributes are mutually exclusive. A IllegalArgumentException is thrown if both are set by the time getObject(MuleContext) is invoked. The same exception is also thrown if none of them are.

Instances of this class are to be considered thread-safe and reusable.
