Field Detail

groupCache

public static com.jivesoftware.util.Cache groupCache

A cache for group objects. This cache is not instantiated until after this factory is initialized.

groupIDCache

public static com.jivesoftware.util.Cache groupIDCache

A cache that maps group names to ID's. This cache is not instantiated until after this factory is initialized.

groupMemberCache

public static com.jivesoftware.util.Cache groupMemberCache

A cache for the list members of in each group.This cache is not instantiated until after this factory is initialized.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static GroupManager getInstance()

Returns a concrete instance of the group manager interface. This method will return null until this class has been initialized.

Note: in general, this method is not intended to be called by outside users of the API. Doing so is dangerous since the GroupManager implementation returned will not be secured by a protection proxy.

Returns:

a concrete implementation of a group manager.

initialize

public void initialize()

Specified by:

initialize in interface com.jivesoftware.base.JiveManager

destroy

public void destroy()

Specified by:

destroy in interface com.jivesoftware.base.JiveManager

doInitialize

public static void doInitialize()

addListener

public static void addListener(GroupListener listener)

Method used internally by Jive. Do NOT use this method to register a listener for group events - use the GroupEventDispatcher to do that.

removeListener

public static void removeListener(GroupListener listener)

Method used internally by Jive. Do NOT use this method to unregister a listener for group events - use the GroupEventDispatcher to do that.

dispatchEvent

public static void dispatchEvent(JiveEvent event)

Method used internally by Jive.
