getLibrary

Library getLibrary()

Return the singleton library.

Returns:

the library

getName

String getName()

Return the name of the resource.

Returns:

the resource name

getVersion

String getVersion()

Return the resource version.

Returns:

the version

getStatutoryVersion

String getStatutoryVersion()

Return the statutory resource version.

Returns:

the version

getDecimalVersion

Version getDecimalVersion()

Return the decimal version.

Returns:

the version

getResourcePath

String getResourcePath()

Return the fully qualified path to the resource.

Returns:

the path

getBaseDir

File getBaseDir()

Return the basedir for this resource.

Returns:

the base directory (possibly null)

getInfo

Info getInfo()

Return the info block.

Returns:

the info block

getClassifier

ResourceDirective.Classifier getClassifier()

Return the resource classifier.

Returns:

the classifier (LOCAL, EXTERNAL or ANONYMOUS)

getTypes

Type[] getTypes()

Return the expanded array of types associated with the resource. The returned array is a function of the types declared by a resource expanded relative to any types implied by processor dependencies.

Returns:

the type array

isa

boolean isa(String type)

Test if this resource is associated with a type of the supplied name.

Parameters:

type - the type id

Returns:

TRUE if this resource produces an artifact of the supplied type

getType

Type getType(String id)

Return a resource type relative to a supplied type id.

Parameters:

id - the type name to retrieve

Returns:

the type instance

getArtifact

Artifact getArtifact(String type)

Construct an artifact for the supplied type.

Parameters:

type - the resource type id

Returns:

the artifact

getLinkArtifact

Artifact getLinkArtifact(String type)

Construct an unversion link artifact for the supplied type.

Parameters:

type - the resource type id

Returns:

the link artifact

getParent

Module getParent()

Return the enclosing parent module.

Returns:

the enclosing module of null if this a top-level module.

getProviders

Resource[] getProviders(Scope scope,
                        boolean expand,
                        boolean sort)

Return an array of resource that are providers to this resource.

Parameters:

scope - the operational scope

expand - if true include transitive dependencies

sort - if true the array will sorted relative to dependencies

Returns:

the resource providers

getAggregatedProviders

Resource[] getAggregatedProviders(Scope scope,
                                  boolean expand,
                                  boolean sort)

Return an array of resource that are providers to this resource. If the supplied scope is BUILD the returned resource array is equivalent getProviders( Scope.BUILD, .. ). If the scope is RUNTIME the returned resource array includes BUILD and RUNTIME resources. If the scope is TEST the returned array includes BUILD, RUNTIME and TEST resources.

Parameters:

scope - the scope of aggregation to be applied to the selection

expand - if TRUE include transitive dependencies

sort - if true the array will sorted relative to dependencies

Returns:

the resource providers

getClasspathProviders

Resource[] getClasspathProviders(Scope scope)

Return a sorted and filtered array of providers. Resources not declaring the "jar" type as a produced type are excluded from selection. The resource array will include transitive dependencies. The method is suitable for the construction of build and test phase classloaders.

Parameters:

scope - the aggregation scope

Returns:

the scoped resource chain

getClasspathProviders

Resource[] getClasspathProviders(Category category)

Return an array of runtime providers filtered relative to a supplied classloading category. Resources not declaring the "jar" type as a produced type are excluded from selection. The resource array returned from this operation is a sorted transitive sequence excluding all resource references by any category higher than the supplied category. This method is typically used to construct information suitable for the gerneration of plugin metadata.

Parameters:

category - the classloader category

Returns:

the category scoped resource chain

getConsumers

Resource[] getConsumers(boolean expand,
                        boolean sort)

Return an array of resources that are consumers of this resource.

Parameters:

expand - if true the returned array includes consumers associated through transitive dependency relationships, otherwise the array is limited to direct consumers

sort - if true the array is sorted relative to depenency relationships

Returns:

the array of consumer projects

getFilters

Filter[] getFilters()

Return an array of filters associated with the resource.

Returns:

the array of filters

getLayoutPath

String getLayoutPath(String id)

Return a filename using the layout strategy employed by the cache.

Parameters:

id - the artifact type

Returns:

the filename

getData

Data[] getData()

Return the array of production data.

Returns:

the associated production data
