Interface ContainerService

All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractContainerService

public interface ContainerService

Provides the backing servlet container support for the DevAppServer, as discovered via ServiceProvider.

More specifically, this interface encapsulates the interactions between the DevAppServer and the underlying servlet container, which by default uses Jetty.

configure

com.google.appengine.tools.development.LocalServerEnvironment configure(java.lang.String devAppServerVersion,
                                                                        java.io.File appDir,
                                                                        java.io.File webXmlLocation,
                                                                        java.io.File appEngineWebXmlLocation,
                                                                        java.lang.String address,
                                                                        int port,

Sets up the necessary configuration parameters.

Parameters:
devAppServerVersion - Version of the devAppServer.
appDir - The location of the application to run.
webXmlLocation - The location of a file whose format complies with http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd. If null we will use /WEB-INF/web.xml.
appEngineWebXmlLocation - The location of the app engine config file. If null we will use /WEB-INF/appengine-web.xml.
address - The address on which the server will run
port - The port to which the server will be bound. If 0, an available port will be selected.
containerConfigProperties - Additional properties used in the configuration of the specific container implementation. This map travels across classloader boundaries, so all values in the map must be JRE classes.
Returns:
A LocalServerEnvironment describing the environment in which the server is running.

startup

void startup()
             throws java.lang.Exception

Throws:
java.lang.Exception - Any exception from the container will be rethrown as is.

shutdown

void shutdown()
              throws java.lang.Exception
Shuts down the servlet container.

Throws:
java.lang.Exception - Any exception from the container will be rethrown as is.
