Interface LoadBalanceMembershipHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

Axis2LoadBalanceMembershipHandler, ServiceLoadBalanceMembershipHandler

public interface LoadBalanceMembershipHandler

This interface is responsible for providing the next member to which a message has to be sent to. Generally, this interface will work with a GCF or other membership discovery mechanism

Method Summary

ConfigurationContext	getConfigurationContext() Get the Axis2 ConfigurationContext
LoadbalanceAlgorithm	getLoadbalanceAlgorithm() Get the algorithum uses in this membership handler
Member	getNextApplicationMember(AlgorithmContext context) Get the next application member to whom the message has to be sent to
Properties	getProperties() get the properties used to init this membership handler
void	init(Properties properties, LoadbalanceAlgorithm algorithm) Initialize this
void	setConfigurationContext(ConfigurationContext configCtx) Set the Axis2 ConfigurationContext
