It's still the first stage. You would have something like this:
class AbstractConfigurable implements Configurable
{
private m_configurationManager = null;
public void configure( ConfigurationManager cm )
{
m_configurationManager = cm;
}
protected Logger getLogger()
{
return m_configurationManager.getLogger();
}
}
Also note, that the Logger (AKA LogEnabled) can remain its own
interface. In this case, we don't deviate a whole lot from the
current Avalon:
interface LogEnabled
{
void enableLogging( Logger logger );
}
interface Configurable
{
void configure( ConfigurationManager cm );
}
interface ConfigurationManager
{
Context getContext();
Configuration getConfiguration();
Properties getProperties();
}
interface Serviceable
{
void service( ServiceManager sm );
}
interface ServiceManager
{
Object lookup( String role ) throws ServiceException;
boolean hasService( String role ) throws ServiceException;
}
interface Initializable
{
void initialize();
}
interface Startable
{
void start();
void stop();
}
interface Suspendable
{
void suspend();
void resume();
}
interface ConfigurationChangeListener
{
void configurationChanged( ConfigurationChangeEvent );
}
interface Disposable
{
void dispose();
}
