API updates
Hi all - I've just commited some experimental changes to the API. All
the changes have an @experimental javadoc tag.
The javadoc is available to view on the Apache hudson server -
http://hudson.zones.apache.org/hudson/view/Kato/job/kato.api-head/javadoc/
Changes are
1 - All methods that returned an Iterator now return a List
2 - I've added a new JavaVariable class that is returned from the
JavaStackFrame
3 - I've added in an ImageFactoryRepository class that uses the
javax.imageio.spi.ServiceRegistry mechanism to discover ImageFactories
implementations
I'm also going to commit a change soon to allow the ImageFactoryRepository
to respond to a request to return an Image given a java.io.File. This will
mean adding a method on the ImageFactory interface to allow the ImageFactory
to indicate the file extentions it supports.
These are all experimental changes , along the lines of what we've discussed
before , that are intended to enable real exploration of these ideas.
Cheers
Steve
