Constructor Detail

SQLServerExtractPhysicalSchemaActivity

public SQLServerExtractPhysicalSchemaActivity(org.w3c.dom.Element element)
                                       throws ActivitySpecificationException,
                                              ActivityCreationException

Method Detail

initialise

public void initialise()
                throws ActivitySpecificationException,
                       ActivityExecutionException

Description copied from class: Activity

This method should be overridden by subclasses to perform any initialisation they require before the process method invocations begin. This might be used for setting up convenient fields to reference objects contained in the context. It shouldn't be used for opening resources. That should be done in processFirst.

Overrides:

initialise in class Activity

Throws:

ActivityExecutionException - If some system problem prevents the activity from initialising.

ActivitySpecificationException - If a problem with settings provided by a client prevents the activity from initialising.

processFirst

protected void processFirst()

Description copied from class: Activity

This method is called during the first iteration of processing an activity. It can be overridden by subclasses to define some processing that should be done only once during the first iteration of the activity processing, for example evaluating a database query.

Overrides:

processFirst in class Activity

processBlock

protected void processBlock()

Description copied from class: Activity

Performs an iteration of the processing of an activity. This may involve reading a block of input data and writing a block of output data, or may involve some other kind of processing. When an activity is processed by the OGSA-DAI engine, this method will be invoked repeatedly until the activity either completes or stops due to an error or termination call. An implementation of this method should invoke the setCompleted method to indicate that processing is complete, or the setError method if an error occurs that will prevent the processing from completing.

Specified by:

processBlock in class Activity

cleanUp

protected void cleanUp()

Description copied from class: Activity

This method can be overridden by any Activity implementations that need to free up resources in the event of an error or intermediate termination of the activity processing.

Overrides:

cleanUp in class Activity

getDatabaseName

private java.lang.String getDatabaseName(java.sql.Connection connection)
                                  throws java.sql.SQLException

Get the database name for this connection.

Parameters:

connection - A database connection

Returns:

name of the database

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - If there was a problem connecting to the database

convertToBytes

private java.lang.String convertToBytes(java.lang.String kb)

Convert strings that end in KB to bytes otherwise return the original string.

Parameters:

kb - String to convert.

Returns:

original or converted string.
