Method Detail

startup

public void startup()
             throws java.lang.Exception

Description copied from interface: MaryModule

Allow the module to start up, performing whatever is necessary to become operational. After successful completion, getState() should return MODULE_RUNNING.

Specified by:

startup in interface MaryModule

Overrides:

startup in class InternalModule

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

powerOnSelfTest

public void powerOnSelfTest()
                     throws java.lang.Error

Perform a power-on self test by processing some example input data.

Specified by:

powerOnSelfTest in interface MaryModule

Overrides:

powerOnSelfTest in class InternalModule

Throws:

java.lang.Error - if the module does not work properly.

process

public MaryData process(MaryData d)
                 throws java.lang.Exception

Description copied from class: InternalModule

Perform this module's processing on abstract "MaryData" input d. Subclasses need to make sure that the process() method is thread-safe, because in server-mode, it will be called from different threads at the same time. A sensible way to do this seems to be not to use any global or static variables, or to use them read-only.

Specified by:

process in interface MaryModule

Overrides:

process in class InternalModule

Returns:

A MaryData object of type outputType() encapsulating the processing result.

This method just returns its input. Subclasses should override this.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception
