Module org.refcodes.servicebus
Package org.refcodes.servicebus

Interface Service<SMD>

Type Parameters:
SMD - the generic service meta data type
All Superinterfaces:
org.refcodes.component.Component, org.refcodes.component.Destroyable, org.refcodes.mixin.MetaDataAccessor<SMD>
public interface Service<SMD>
extends org.refcodes.mixin.MetaDataAccessor<SMD>, org.refcodes.component.Component
Any Service to be made available by the service bus must implement this interface. Adding methods to this interface forces any service to implement this method which might be useful for later extensions.

To identify a Service via lookup, we need criteria for identifying that service. One criteria might by the type of the Service, others may be implementation or configuration specific. At least the configuration specific criteria is found in the service's Meta-Data provided by the MetaDataAccessor which each Service is to provide.
