Class NamingTableConfigurationFactory

java.lang.Object

com.iplanet.services.naming.NamingTableConfigurationFactory

public class NamingTableConfigurationFactory
extends Object

Responsible for creating the configuration which is used by WebtopNaming. The objective is to ensure that the configuration is used in an immutable fashion by WebtopNaming, which has a high tendency of leak untyped collections through its API. This class is intentionally gingerly moving code from WebtopNaming to this configuration factory in the attempt to minimise the impact of these changes on what is some of the oldest code in the product. Future direction: Refactor and convert these initialisation methods so that the configuration can be entirely initialsed as final.

Constructs the internal configuration required by WebtopNaming. Thread Safety: This method does not require synchronisation as the result is an immutable data structure.

Parameters:

namingTable - Non null naming table which contains the current server and site configuration.

Returns:

Non null NamingTableConfiguration.

Throws:

MalformedURLException - TODO

ServerEntryNotFoundException - TODO
