public interface ModelResolver

A model resolver, responsible for resolving models in the scope of an SCA contribution. SCA Assemblies reference artifacts of a wide variety of types. These include:

• Reference from one SCA composite to another SCA composite
• Reference to PolicySet files
• Reference to interface definition files, either WSDL or Java interfaces
• Reference to XSD files
• Reference to any of a wide variety of implementation artifact files, including Java classes, BPEL scripts, C++ DLLs and classes, PHP scripts

In the SCA assemblies, these various artifacts are referenced using either QNames or logical URIs. Model resolvers are used to resolve these references and get the in-memory models representing the referenced artifacts.

Method Summary

java.lang.Object	removeModel(java.lang.Object resolved) Remove a resolved model.
<T> T	resolveModel(java.lang.Class<T> modelClass, T unresolved) Resolve the model representing an artifact.
