Lifecycle interfaces for all Components.

See: Description

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
Callable	Callable is used to provide a Service with an interface that supports event calls.
Disposable	Disposable is a lifecycle interface that gets called at the dispose lifecycle stage of the implementing service as the service is being destroyed.
EventListener	EventListener is a marker interface that is implemented by objects wishing to receive Mule events in managed environments, such as an EJB container.
Initialisable	Initialisable is a lifecycle interface that gets called at the initialise lifecycle stage of the implementing service.
InitialisationCallback	InitialisationCallback is used to provide customised initialiation for more complex components.
Lifecycle	DefaultLifecyclePhase adds lifecycle methods start, stop and dispose.
LifecycleCallback<O>	This callback is used to execute lifecycle behaviour for an object being managed by a LifecycleManager The callback is used so that transitions can be managed consistently outside of an object
LifecycleManager	The LifecycleManager is responsible for managing the different lifecycle phases of the server and managing the transitions between lifecycle phases.
LifecyclePhase	Encapsulates the notion of a lifecycle phase i.e.
LifecycleState	A safe facade for lifecycle manager that objects can use to monitor its own state
LifecycleStateAware	Inject an objects lifecycle state.
LifecycleStateEnabled	Objects that have an associated lifecycle manager such as Service or Connector should implement this interface so that the registry lifecycle manager can introspect the lifecycle state of an object.
RegistryLifecycleHelpers	This interface defines additional Registry Lifecycle methods to enable extenral objects to have there lifecycle managed by the registry.
Startable	Startable provides an object with a Startable.start() method which gets called when the Mule instance gets started.
Stoppable	Stoppable is a lifecycle interfaqce that introduces a Stoppable.stop() method to an object.

Class Summary

Class	Description
LifecycleTransitionResult	Restrict possible results - only OK or a retry based on some throwable are currently allowed.
LifecycleUtils

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
CreateException	CreateException is thrown when creating an object inside Mule wasn't possible due to inconsistent internal state or wrong input.
DisposeException	DisposeException TODO (document class)
FatalException	FatalException can be thrown during initialisation or during execution to indicate that something fatal has occurred and the MuleManager must shutdown.
InitialisationException	InitialisationException is thrown by the initialise method defined in the org.mule.api.lifecycle.Initialisable interface.
LifecycleException	LifecycleException TODO
RecoverableException	RecoverableException can be thrown during initialisation to indicate that the error occurred is not fatal and a reactive action can be performed to try and remedy the error.
StartException	DisposeException TODO (document class)
StopException	DisposeException TODO (document class)
