Class DatabaseImpl

    java.lang.Object
      org.exist.xmldb.DatabaseImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Configurable, Database

public class DatabaseImpl
extends java.lang.Object
implements Database

The XMLDB driver class for eXist. This driver manages two different internal implementations. The first communicates with a remote database using the XMLRPC protocol. The second has direct access to an embedded database instance running in the same virtual machine. The driver chooses an implementation depending on the XML:DB URI passed to getCollection(). When running in embedded mode, the driver can create a new database instance if none is available yet. It will do so if the property "create-database" is set to "true" or if there is a system property "exist.initdb" with value "true". You may optionally provide the location of an alternate configuration file through the "configuration" property. The driver is also able to address different database instances - which may have been installed at different places.

### DatabaseImpl

    public DatabaseImpl()

Method Detail

### acceptsURI

    public boolean acceptsURI(java.lang.String uri)
                       throws XMLDBException

  Description copied from interface: `Database`
  acceptsURI determines whether this `Database` implementation can handle the URI. It should return true if the Database instance knows how to handle the URI and false otherwise.

  Specified by:
    `acceptsURI` in interface `Database`
  Parameters:
    `uri` - the URI to check for.
  Returns:
    true if the URI can be handled, false otherwise.
  Throws:
    `XMLDBException` - with expected error codes.
    `ErrorCodes.VENDOR_ERROR` for any vendor specific errors that occur.
    `ErrroCodes.INVALID_URI` If the URI is not in a valid format.

### acceptsURI

    public boolean acceptsURI(XmldbURI xmldbURI)
                       throws XMLDBException

  Throws:
    `XMLDBException`

### getCollection

    public Collection getCollection(java.lang.String uri,
                                    java.lang.String user,
                                    java.lang.String password)
                             throws XMLDBException

  Description copied from interface: `Database`
  Retrieves a `Collection` instance based on the URI provided in the `uri` parameter. The format of the URI is defined in the documentation for DatabaseManager.getCollection().

  Authentication is handled via username and password however it is not required that the database support authentication. Databases that do not support authentication MUST ignore the `username` and `password` if those provided are not null.

  Specified by:
    `getCollection` in interface `Database`
  Parameters:
    `uri` - the URI to use to locate the collection.
    `password` - The password to use for authentication to the database or null if the database does not support authentication.
  Returns:
    A `Collection` instance for the requested collection or null if the collection could not be found.
  Throws:
    `XMLDBException` - with expected error codes.
    `ErrorCodes.VENDOR_ERROR` for any vendor specific errors that occur.
    `ErrroCodes.INVALID_URI` If the URI is not in a valid format.
    `ErrroCodes.PERMISSION_DENIED` If the `username` and `password` were not accepted by the database.

### getCollection

    public Collection getCollection(XmldbURI xmldbURI,
                                    java.lang.String user,
                                    java.lang.String password)
                             throws XMLDBException

  Throws:
    `XMLDBException`

### readCollection

    public static Collection readCollection(java.lang.String c,
                                            org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcClient rpcClient)
                                     throws XMLDBException

  Throws:
    `XMLDBException`

### setDatabaseShutdownListener

    public void setDatabaseShutdownListener(ShutdownListener listener)
                                     throws XMLDBException

  Register a ShutdownListener for the current database instance. The ShutdownListener is called after the database has shut down. You have to register a listener before any calls to getCollection().

  Parameters:
    `listener` -
  Throws:
    `XMLDBException`
