Class NetServerConnection

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    Deprecated. 
    This class has been replaced by the ISeriesNetServerConnection class and may be removed in a future release.

    public class NetServerConnection
    extends Resource
    The NetServerConnection class represents a NetServer share connection.

    Note: A session (represented by class NetServerSession) corresponds to a workstation. A workstation could be a Windows Terminal Server or it could be a single PC on someone's desktop. A connection (represented by this class) corresponds to a specific user who has mapped a drive and has files opened or spooled output on a print queue. Since a session can have multiple users, a connection shows a particular user's statistics on that session.

    NetServerConnection objects are created and returned by the following methods:

    The following attribute IDs are supported:

    Use any of the above attribute IDs with the getAttributeValue method to access the attribute values for a NetServerConnection.
    Note: For the above attributes, getAttributeValue() should never return null. For String-valued attributes, if the current actual value of the corresponding property on the system is blank, getAttributeValue() will return "" (an empty String).

      • establishConnection

        protected void establishConnection()
                                    throws ResourceException
        Deprecated. 
        Establishes the connection (of this object) to the system.

        The method is called by the resource framework automatically when the object connection needs to be established.

        Overrides:
        establishConnection in class Resource
        Throws:
        ResourceException - If an error occurs.
      • freezeProperties

        protected void freezeProperties()
                                 throws ResourceException
        Deprecated. 
        Freezes any property changes. After this is called, property changes should not be made. Properties are not the same thing as attributes. Properties are basic pieces of information which must be set to make the object usable, such as the system and the name.

        The method is called by the resource framework automatically when the properties need to be frozen.

        Overrides:
        freezeProperties in class Resource
        Throws:
        ResourceException - If an error occurs.
      • getAttributeValue

        public java.lang.Object getAttributeValue(java.lang.Object attributeID)
                                           throws ResourceException
        Deprecated. 
        Returns the current value of an attribute.
        Overrides:
        getAttributeValue in class Resource
        Parameters:
        attributeID - Identifies the attribute.
        Returns:
        The attribute value, or null if the attribute value is not available.
        Throws:
        ResourceException - If an error occurs.

      • getID

        public int getID()
        Deprecated. 
        Returns the connection ID for connection.
        Returns:
        The connection ID.
