Class AGSServerConnectionFactory

java.lang.Object
  extended by com.esri.arcgis.gisclient.AGSServerConnectionFactory
All Implemented Interfaces:
IAGSServerConnectionFactory, IAGSServerConnectionFactory2, ISetDefaultAgsConnectionInfo, com.esri.arcgis.interop.RemoteObjRef, Serializable

public class AGSServerConnectionFactory
extends Object
implements com.esri.arcgis.interop.RemoteObjRef, IAGSServerConnectionFactory, IAGSServerConnectionFactory2, ISetDefaultAgsConnectionInfo

A factory object for ArcGIS Server Connections.

Remarks

An AGSServerConnectionFactory is a dispenser of AGSServerConnection objects and allows a client to connect to an ArcGIS Server either directly over a LAN or indirectly to a web service catalog specified. An AGSServerConnection represents a GIS server or web service catalog that containe one of more server objects. Types of server object are MapServer and GeocodeServer. An AGSServerConnectionFactory maintains a pool of currently connected, active connections that are being referenced by the application. Connection properties are specified using a PropertySet object and can be saved to a connection file.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Singleton:

This type is a singleton.

AGSServerConnectionFactory on Unix can only use Internet connections (i.e through the web service endpoints) to connect to ArcGIS Servers. It cannot connect over LAN connections.

Constructor Detail

AGSServerConnectionFactory

public AGSServerConnectionFactory()
                           throws IOException,
                                  UnknownHostException
Constructs a AGSServerConnectionFactory using ArcGIS Engine.

Throws:
IOException - if there are interop problems
UnknownHostException - if there are interop problems

AGSServerConnectionFactory

public AGSServerConnectionFactory(Object obj)
                           throws IOException
Deprecated. As of ArcGIS 9.2, replaced by normal Java casts.
AGSServerConnectionFactory theAGSServerConnectionFactory = (AGSServerConnectionFactory) obj;

Construct a AGSServerConnectionFactory using a reference to such an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server. This is semantically equivalent to casting obj to AGSServerConnectionFactory.

Parameters:
obj - an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server
Throws:
IOException - if there are interop problems
Method Detail

getClsid

public static String getClsid()
getClsid.


equals

public boolean equals(Object o)
Compare this object with another

Overrides:
equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()
the hashcode for this object

Overrides:
hashCode in class Object

open

public IAGSServerConnection open(IPropertySet pConnectionProperties,
                                 int hWnd)
                          throws IOException,
                                 AutomationException
Opens the GIS server connection specified by the connection properties.

Remarks

Use the Open method to create an AGSServerConnection based on a property set. The properties required in the property set depend on whether you are connecting directly to a GIS server over a LAN, or if you are connecting to a web service catalog. When connecting to a GIS server over the LAN, you need to set the machine property to be the name of the GIS server machine. When connecting to a web service catalog, you need to set the url property to the url of the web service catalog.

If the web service catalog you are connecting to is secure and requires a username and password, include them in the property set as the user and password properties, respectivly.
