[wtp-dev] Attention: Single component api changes.

[Chuck Bridgham <cbridgha@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

Due to the recent decision of limiting
components to one per project, the following changes are being released.

I am contacting component owners that
are affected, and will coordinate a build drop tonight.  (I am also
helping component owners with changes to ensure a smooth and quick transistion.)

API Changes:

IFlexibleProject -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Removed (No replacement - Used to query components within a project)

ComponentCore

        public
static IFlexibleProject createFlexibleProject(IProject aProject) ----------------------
Removed
        public
static IVirtualComponent createComponent(IProject aProject, String aComponentName)
---- public static IVirtualComponent createComponent(IProject aProject)
- (Component name assumes the project name)

ComponentHandle ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Removed (No Replacement - Used to key on a component instance, IProject
can now be used for component lookup)

ArtifactEdit

        public
static ArtifactEdit getArtifactEditForRead(ComponentHandle) ---------------------------
        public static ArtifactEdit getArtifactEditForRead(IProject
aProject)
        public
static ArtifactEdit getArtifactEditForWrite(ComponentHandle) --------------------------
        public static ArtifactEdit getArtifactEditForWrite(IProject
aProject)

ModuleURIUtil.fullyQualifyURI

StructureEdit

        findComponentByName(jcaModuleName);
  -----------------------  getComponent();

ICreateReferenceComponentsDataModelProperties

         
               
      SOURCE_COMPONENT_HANDLE ----------------------------------------------------------------
       SOURCE_COMPONENT  (Setting components
- needed for project components and binary components(*.jars)
         
               
      TARGET_COMPONENTS_HANDLE_LIST -----------------------------------------------------
  TARGET_COMPONENT_LIST

API snippet examples:

IFlexibleProject fp = ComponentCore.createFlexibleProject(projects[i]);
IVirtualComponent[] vcs = fp.getComponents();

becomes

IVirtualComponent vc = ComponentCore.createComponent(projects[i]);


ComponentHandle handle = ComponentHandle.create(ejbProject,ejbModuleName);
edit = EJBArtifactEdit.getEJBArtifactEditForRead(handle);
edit.getDeploymentDescriptorRoot();

becomes

edit = EJBArtifactEdit.getEJBArtifactEditForRead(ejbProject);
edit.getDeploymentDescriptorRoot();

Thanks - Chuck
