public abstract class AbstractWorkbenchDelegate<WorkflowConfigurationType extends AbstractJobConfiguration,WorkflowType extends Workflow> extends Object implements IActionDelegate
Abstract base class for Eclipse Workbench Actions which run based on the Palladio workflow engine, i.e., the run has an IJob which gets executed. The class offers features to support logging into the Eclipse console, support for an Eclipse process which can be used to interrupt, terminate or debug the run, integration of the Eclipse progress bar, exception handling, etc. * The class is abstract and defines some methods, which must be implemented by subclasses. See method descriptions for details. This class is based on code provided by Roman Andrej
  • Field Details

    • SHORT_LOG_PATTERN

      protected static final String SHORT_LOG_PATTERN
      Log Pattern used for run mode.
      See Also:
    • DETAILED_LOG_PATTERN

      protected static final String DETAILED_LOG_PATTERN
      Log Pattern used for debug mode.
      See Also:
    • VERBOSE_LOGGING

      public static final String VERBOSE_LOGGING
      Name of the entry in the configuration hashmap containing the log level.
      See Also:
    • workflowListener

      protected final List<WorkflowStatusListener> workflowListener
      A list of listeners to inform about workflow status changes.
  • Constructor Details

    • AbstractWorkbenchDelegate

      public AbstractWorkbenchDelegate()
  • Method Details

    • run

      public void run(IAction action)
      Specified by:
      run in interface IActionDelegate
    • getLogLevel

      protected org.apache.log4j.Level getLogLevel()
      Get the log level based on the extended CommonTab in DebugEnabledCommonTab.

      TODO: Anne has set this to protected because the logging has to be re-enabled during PerOpteryx. Check later whether there is a better solution.

      Returns:
      The log level selected by the user
    • createExceptionHandler

      protected WorkflowExceptionHandler createExceptionHandler(boolean interactive)
      Instanciate the workflow exception handler used to handle failures in the workflow. By default returns an excpetion handler which uses Eclipse Dialogs to inform the user about the failure.
      Parameters:
      interactive - Whether the workflow runs interactive
      Returns:
      A workflow exception handler
    • createWorkflow

      protected WorkflowType createWorkflow(WorkflowConfigurationType workflowConfiguration)
      Instantiate the workflow engine. By default a standard workflow engine is created.
      Parameters:
      workflowConfiguration - Configuration of the workflow job
      Returns:
      The workflow engine to use for this launch
    • setupLogging

      protected ArrayList<LoggerAppenderStruct> setupLogging(org.apache.log4j.Level logLevel)
      Setup LOGGER for the workflow run. May be overridden by clients to configure further LOGGER for other namespaces than de.uka.ipd.sdq.workflow. Use protected method setupLogger to configure additional loggers
      Parameters:
      logLevel - The apache log4j log level requested by the user as log level
      Returns:
      the array list
    • setupLogger

      protected LoggerAppenderStruct setupLogger(String loggerName, org.apache.log4j.Level logLevel, String layout)
      Configure the named LOGGER to log on the given log level with the given PatternLayout.
      Parameters:
      loggerName - The name of the LOGGER to configure
      logLevel - The log level to be used by the LOGGER to configure
      layout - The layout for the pattern layout to be used to format log messages. The layout may reuse the defined constants in this class for short and detailed log outputs
      Returns:
      the LOGGER appender struct
    • getProcess

      protected WorkflowProcess getProcess()
      Instantiate the Eclipse process used by the workflow engine. Override this method to return a different process if you need support for debugging, etc.
      Returns:
      The process used to execute this launch
    • getWorkflowListener

      public List<WorkflowStatusListener> getWorkflowListener()
      Access the list of registered workflow status listeners.
      Returns:
      The currently registered listeners
    • register

      public void register(WorkflowStatusListener listner)
      Register a workflow status listener to the delegate.
      Parameters:
      listner - The listener to register.
    • setProgressMonitor

      public void setProgressMonitor(IProgressMonitor progressMonitor)
      Set another progress monitor the workflow should report to than the default null progress one. Note: The progress monitor must be set before the workflow is triggered! (run method)
      Parameters:
      progressMonitor - The monitor to report to.
    • createWorkflowJob

      protected abstract IJob createWorkflowJob(WorkflowConfigurationType config)
      Instantiate the main job to be executed by the workflow engine. The job can be a single job or any other job type like composite jobs. The job will be run by the workflow engine.
      Parameters:
      config - The strongly-typed configuration object used to configure the main workflow job
      Returns:
      The main workflow job to be executed by the workflow engine
    • useSeparateConsoleForEachJobRun

      protected abstract boolean useSeparateConsoleForEachJobRun()

    • getConfiguration

      protected abstract WorkflowConfigurationType getConfiguration()
      This method is called as template method and has to be overriden by clients. Its purpose is to return a strongly typed configuration object needed by this workflow's main workflow job.
      Returns:
      The strongly typed configuration object for the main workflow job
