Interface SharedResourceUsage

All Superinterfaces:

ResourceUsage

public interface SharedResourceUsage
extends ResourceUsage

This interface represents a group of resources where one or more resources are shared between multiple resource usages. If there is a contention over a resource that is considered shared between multiple uses, the shared usage SHALL be represented by an instance of SharedResourceUsage and the getResourceUsages() method would return the individual ResourceUsage instances that share the resource.

Because a SharedResourceUsage can contain multiple ResourceUsage instances where different applications reserved the resources, the value returned by the SharedResourceUsage.getAppID method is meaningless and SHALL be null. To determine AppID instances an application can peruse the ResourceUsage instances returned by the getResourceUsages method.

Method Summary

ResourceUsage[]	getResourceUsages() Gets the list of ResourceUsage instances that share the resources represented by this resource usage
