public Interface SpecificationLink

extends RegistryObject
Imports
javax.xml.registry.*, java.util.*
A SpecificationLink provides the linkage between a ServiceBinding and one of its technical specifications that describes how to use the service using the ServiceBinding. For example, a ServiceBinding may have a SpecificationLink instance that describes how to access the service using a technical specification in the form of a WSDL document or a CORBA IDL document. It serves the same purpose as the union of the tModelInstanceInfo and instanceDetails structures in UDDI.

public ServiceBinding

Returns:

the parent ServiceBinding within which this object is composed
getServiceBinding()

Gets the parent ServiceBinding for this SpecificationLink.

public RegistryObject

Returns:

the RegistryObject that is the specification object. For a UDDI provider the specification object must be a Concept with no parent. For an ebXML provider it is likely to be an ExtrinsicObject.
getSpecificationObject()

Gets the specification object for this object.

public InternationalString

Returns:

the usage description for this object, which must not be null
getUsageDescription()

Gets the description of usage parameters.

public Collection<E>

Returns:

the Collection of String instances. The Collection may be empty but not null.
getUsageParameters()

Gets any usage parameters.
