@Forward(name="exception", description="some error happened while processing the message; represents the \'unhappy or error flow\' and is not limited to Java Exceptions.") public abstract class AbstractPipe extends TransactionAttributes implements IPipe, EventThrowing, org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware, IWithParameters, HasStatistics
Base class for Pipe. A Pipe represents an action to take in a Pipeline. This class is meant to be extended for defining steps or actions to take to complete a request.
The contract is that a pipe is created (by the digester), setName(String) is called and other setters are called, and then IPipe.configure() is called, optionally throwing a ConfigurationException.
As much as possible, class instantiating should take place in the IPipe.configure() method. The object remains alive while the framework is running. When the pipe is to be run, the doPipe method is activated.

For the duration of the processing of a message by the pipeline has a pipeLineSession.
By this mechanism, pipes may communicate with one another.
However, use this functionality with caution, as it is not desirable to make pipes dependent on each other. If a pipe expects something in a session, it is recommended that the key under which the information is stored is configurable (has a setter for this keyname). Also, the setting of something in the PipeLineSession should be done using this technique (specifying the key under which to store the value by a parameter).

Since 4.1 this class also has parameters, so that descendants of this class automatically are parameter-enabled. However, your documentation should say if and how parameters are used!

All pipes support a forward named 'exception' which will be followed in the pipeline in case the PipeRunExceptions are not handled by the pipe itself

    • configure

      public void configure() throws ConfigurationException
      configure() is called after the Pipeline is registered at the Adapter. Purpose of this method is to reduce creating connections to databases etc. in the doPipe() method. As much as possible class-instantiating should take place in the configure() method, to improve performance.
