Method Detail

usingClass

DnaConfiguration.LoadedFrom<ReturnType> usingClass(String classname)

Specify the name of the class that should be instantiated for the instance. The classpath information will need to be defined using the returned interface.

Parameters:

classname - the name of the class that should be instantiated

Returns:

the interface used to define the classpath information; never null

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the class name is null, empty, blank, or not a valid class name

usingClass

ReturnType usingClass(Class<? extends ComponentClassType> clazz)

Specify the class that should be instantiated for the instance. Because the class is already available to this class loader, there is no need to specify the classloader information.

Parameters:

clazz - the class that should be instantiated

Returns:

the next component to continue configuration; never null

Throws:

DnaConfigurationException - if the class could not be accessed and instantiated (if needed)

IllegalArgumentException - if the class reference is null
