/**
 * A resolve context provides resources, options and constraints to the
 * potential solution of a {@link Resolver#resolve(ResolveContext) resolve}
 * operation.
 * 
 * 

* Resolve Contexts: *

    *
  • Specify the mandatory and optional resources to resolve. The mandatory * and optional resources must be consistent and correct. For example, they must * not violate the singleton policy of the implementer.
  • *
  • Provide {@link Capability capabilities} that the Resolver can use to * satisfy {@link Requirement requirements} via the * {@link #findProviders(Requirement)} method
  • *
  • Constrain solutions via the {@link #getWirings()} method. A wiring * consists of a map of existing {@link Resource resources} to {@link Wiring * wiring}.
  • *
  • Filter requirements that are part of a resolve operation via the * {@link #isEffective(Requirement)}.
  • *
* *

* A resolver may call the methods on the resolve context any number of times * during a resolve operation using any thread. Implementors should ensure that * this class is properly thread safe. * *

* Except for {@link #insertHostedCapability(List, HostedCapability)}, the * resolve context methods must be idempotent. This means that resources * must have constant capabilities and requirements and the resolve context must * return a consistent set of capabilities, wires and effective requirements. * * @ThreadSafe * @author $Id: 39b26f1a37b74ecd67dad0e4e89f1dded54366b5 $ */ @ConsumerType public abstract class ResolveContext { /** * Return the resources that must be resolved for this resolve context. * *
