OpenJDK 27 · java.beans.beancontext · APIdia, the JavaDoc alternative

Provides classes and interfaces relating to bean context. A bean context is a container for beans and defines the execution environment for the beans it contains. There can be several beans in a single bean context, and a bean context can be nested within another bean context. This package also contains events and listener interface for beans being added and removed from a bean context.

These APIs are now both obsolete and express an anti-pattern of component assembly and interaction.

This package has been deprecated and may be removed in a future version of the Java Platform. There is no replacement.

All of the classes and interfaces in this package have been terminally deprecated.

Users are advised to migrate their applications to other technologies.

Interface Summary

Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
public interface	BeanContext Deprecated for removal since 23. The BeanContext acts a logical hierarchical container for JavaBeans.
public interface	BeanContextChild Deprecated for removal since 23. JavaBeans wishing to be nested within, and obtain a reference to their execution environment, or context, as defined by the BeanContext sub-interface shall implement this interface.
public interface	BeanContextChildComponentProxy Deprecated for removal since 23. This interface is implemented by `BeanContextChildren` that have an AWT `Component` associated with them.
public interface	BeanContextContainerProxy Deprecated for removal since 23. This interface is implemented by BeanContexts' that have an AWT Container associated with them.
public interface	BeanContextMembershipListener Deprecated for removal since 23. Compliant BeanContexts fire events on this interface when the state of the membership of the BeanContext changes.
public interface	BeanContextProxy Deprecated for removal since 23. This interface is implemented by a JavaBean that does not directly have a BeanContext(Child) associated with it (via implementing that interface or a subinterface thereof), but has a public BeanContext(Child) delegated from it.
public interface	BeanContextServiceProvider Deprecated for removal since 23. One of the primary functions of a BeanContext is to act a as rendezvous between JavaBeans, and BeanContextServiceProviders.
public interface	BeanContextServiceProviderBeanInfo Deprecated for removal since 23. A BeanContextServiceProvider implementor who wishes to provide explicit information about the services their bean may provide shall implement a BeanInfo class that implements this BeanInfo subinterface and provides explicit information about the methods, properties, events, etc, of their services.
public interface	BeanContextServiceRevokedListener Deprecated for removal since 23. The listener interface for receiving `BeanContextServiceRevokedEvent` objects.
public interface	BeanContextServices Deprecated for removal since 23. The BeanContextServices interface provides a mechanism for a BeanContext to expose generic "services" to the BeanContextChild objects within.
public interface	BeanContextServicesListener Deprecated for removal since 23. The listener interface for receiving `BeanContextServiceAvailableEvent` objects.

Class Summary

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
public class	BeanContextChildSupport Deprecated for removal since 23. This is a general support class to provide support for implementing the BeanContextChild protocol.
public abstract class	BeanContextEvent Deprecated for removal since 23. `BeanContextEvent` is the abstract root event class for all events emitted from, and pertaining to the semantics of, a `BeanContext`.
public class	BeanContextMembershipEvent Deprecated for removal since 23. A `BeanContextMembershipEvent` encapsulates the list of children added to, or removed from, the membership of a particular `BeanContext`.
public class	BeanContextServiceAvailableEvent Deprecated for removal since 23. This event type is used by the BeanContextServicesListener in order to identify the service being registered.
public class	BeanContextServiceRevokedEvent Deprecated for removal since 23. This event type is used by the `BeanContextServiceRevokedListener` in order to identify the service being revoked.
public class	BeanContextServicesSupport Deprecated for removal since 23. This helper class provides a utility implementation of the java.beans.beancontext.BeanContextServices interface.
public class	BeanContextSupport Deprecated for removal since 23. This helper class provides a utility implementation of the java.beans.beancontext.BeanContext interface.
