javax.tv.locator.package.html Maven / Gradle / Ivy
The newest version!
Provides a means for referencing data and resources accessible via the
Java TV APIs. The Locator interface serves as an opaque
reference to the location information of entities which are
addressable within a television receiver. For example, locators
can reference broadcast filesystems, portions of service information,
sources of audio/video content, and interactive applications.
A given locator may
represent transport-independent data and have multiple mappings to
transport-dependent locators. Methods are provided for discovery of
such circumstances and for transformation to transport-dependent
locators.
An instance of Locator that references a Service
or ServiceComponent
can be converted to a
javax.media.MediaLocator instance through use of the method
Locator.toExternalForm().
