Method Detail

getAuthority

public java.lang.String getAuthority()

Returns:

the Authority

getNamespace

public java.lang.String getNamespace()

Returns:

the Namespace

getAuthNamespace

public java.lang.String getAuthNamespace()

getFileNameForm

public java.lang.String getFileNameForm()

The purpose here is to return a unique string based on the authNamespace string that can be used for including in the name of Instance specific strings such as the .kepler directory name. This is a one way operation such that the HashValue can be obtained from the AuthNamespace string but probably not the other way around.

initialize

public void initialize()

Set the unique Authority and Namespace for this Kepler Instance.

getNewAuthorizedNamespace

public void getNewAuthorizedNamespace()

Don't use this method. Only if the LSID_GENERATOR table is corrupt or deleted do we want to get a new Authorized Namespace.

initializeForTesting

public void initializeForTesting(java.lang.String authority,
                                 java.lang.String namespace)

This initializer method is only to be used for JUnit testing.

refreshAuthNamespace

public void refreshAuthNamespace()

Read in the Authority and Namespace from the AuthorizedNamespace file.

getInstance

public static AuthNamespace getInstance()

Method for getting an instance of this singleton class.
