Method Detail

getParent

ServiceController<?> getParent()

Get this service's parent service, or null if there is none.

Returns:

the parent service or null if this service has no parent

getServiceContainer

ServiceContainer getServiceContainer()

Get the service container associated with this controller.

Returns:

the container

getMode

ServiceController.Mode getMode()

Get the service controller's current mode.

Returns:

the controller mode

compareAndSetMode

boolean compareAndSetMode(ServiceController.Mode expected,
                          ServiceController.Mode newMode)

Compare the current mode against expected; if it matches, change it to newMode. The return value is true when the mode was matched and changed.

Parameters:

expected - the expected mode

newMode - the new mode

Returns:

true if the mode was changed

setMode

void setMode(ServiceController.Mode mode)

Change the service controller's current mode. Might result in the service starting or stopping. The mode may only be changed if it was not already set to ServiceController.Mode.REMOVE. Calling this method with the controller's current mode has no effect and is always allowed.

Parameters:

mode - the new controller mode

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the mode given is null, or the caller attempted to change the service's mode from ServiceController.Mode.REMOVE to a different mode

getState

ServiceController.State getState()

Get the current service controller state.

Returns:

the current state

getValue
