How tomcat works（深入剖析tomcat）生命周期Lifecycle

How Tomcat Works （6）生命周期Lifecycle

总体概述

这一章讲的是tomcat的组件之一，LifeCycle组件，通过这个组件可以统一管理其他组件，可以达到统一启动/关闭组件的目的，那么LifeCycle是如何实现看似如此神奇的功能的呢？

实现了LifeCycle接口的组件，可以触发如下的事件

BEFORE_START_EVENT
START_EVENT
AFTER_START_EVENT
BEFORE_STOP_EVENT
STOP_EVENT
AFTER_STOP_EVENT

而事件监听器LifeCycleListener，它监听到这些事件然后做出响应的举动，在这里就可以去统一的开启/关闭容器

主要类以及接口

LifeCycle接口

public interface Lifecycle {

    /**

     * The LifecycleEvent type for the "component start" event.

     */

    //start事件,其实它就是个字符串

    public static final String START_EVENT = "start";

    public static final String BEFORE_START_EVENT = "before_start";

    public static final String AFTER_START_EVENT = "after_start";

    public static final String STOP_EVENT = "stop";

    public static final String BEFORE_STOP_EVENT = "before_stop";

    public static final String AFTER_STOP_EVENT = "after_stop";

    //添加Listener

    public void addLifecycleListener(LifecycleListener listener);

	//返回实现了这个接口的容器所绑定的listener

    public LifecycleListener[] findLifecycleListeners();

	//移除某个listener

    public void removeLifecycleListener(LifecycleListener listener);

	//lifecycle接口最重要的两个方法，组件必须提供这两个方法的实现，以供父组件调用，

    //实现父组件对于子组件的开启/关闭

    public void start() throws LifecycleException;

    public void stop() throws LifecycleException;

}

LifeEvent类

生命周期事件是org.apache.catalina.LifecycleEvent类的实例，其实这个类也很简单，对于上面的String进行了一些包装，添加了一些额外的属性而已，类定义如下

public final class LifecycleEvent

    extends EventObject {

    private Object data = null;

    private Lifecycle lifecycle = null;

	//这里的type就对应lifecycle中定义的那6个事件

    private String type = null;

    public LifecycleEvent(Lifecycle lifecycle, String type) {

        this(lifecycle, type, null);

    }

    public LifecycleEvent(Lifecycle lifecycle, String type, Object data) {

        super(lifecycle);

        this.lifecycle = lifecycle;

        this.type = type;

        this.data = data;

    }

    public Object getData() {

        return (this.data);

    }

    public Lifecycle getLifecycle() {

        return (this.lifecycle);

    }

    public String getType() {

        return (this.type);

    }

}
