Method Detail

registerService

boolean registerService(java.lang.String serviceName,

listServices

java.util.List listServices(java.lang.String serviceName,
                            java.lang.Object authorization)

Returns a List containing matching implementations for the specified service names.

unregisterService

boolean unregisterService(java.lang.String serviceName,
                          java.lang.Object serviceImpl,
                          java.lang.Object authorization)
